I get that. Even as a person that attempted suicide once in their life, I can’t say for sure that I understand a suicide individual’s thinking nor can I say for sure that I know what to say to a person contemplating suicide. I feel as though, I may be wrong, that a person thinking of suicide feels alone with their selves. As if no one understands what they are going through hence why they never got the help they needed. They may feel that getting the help they need is hopeless because never before to that point in their lives, they had had someone understand. Understand just once.

How can they if they’ve never been in the same situation?
That’s why I don’t tell anyone I know in person.
