Not to be a debbie downer but this related article came across my feed: Suicide following deliberate self harm.
Quote: "Adults treated for deliberate self-harm frequently repeat self-harm in the following year. Patients who use a violent method for their initial self-harm, especially firearms, have an exceptionally high risk of suicide, particularly right after the initial event, which highlights the importance of careful assessment and close follow-up of this group."

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
