Man Commits Suicide at DLH

[innerSpaceman]

I've never had to, but what I would do in such a case (assuming the person is, say, older than 30) would be to guide them through the events and phases of their lives to point out that EVERYTHING changes ... in the hopes they grok that, even though it seems their misery cannot change, it will nonetheless whether they like it or not.


This has helped me thru "suicidally-contemplative" (though not suicidal) times when it really seemed to me that the future was unwaiveringly bleak.



AND public mojo to MBC for his views on this subject. We do not give the same consideration to the mentally afflicted as we do the physically, and there 's no way we can expect rational behavior from someone in the irrational state of suicidal.
