But understand that with a real suicidal person you can do more harm than good with whatever you say. You're not traines to handle a situation like that. The only exception being someone you know really well on a face to face basis.
My suggestion on this thread was only to provide a resource for help, not to try to coach the person yourself.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
