I think many people just never have even the smallest of suicidal thinking, so when they hear someone say that they sometimes think about suicide, they freak out inside.
Normies don’t get it, they become very fearful when suicide is talked about, they think about the public service announcments they saw on TV, they don’t know what to do and are feeling powerless when we speak of inner pain, the kind that would make suicide a very real option for us.
Welcome. I think you’ll find yourself in comfortable surroundings here. I had similar feelings pre-SP; I was full of suicidal thoughts but just couldn’t find the right person to share them with.

I think we all get it
“they” either over-react or think it’s not that big of a deal.
Welcome to SP 🙂 I hope it somewhat helps you.
