Yikes. This post strikes me as harmful and irresponsible.

On the other hand this attitude - and the associated active suppression of such conversations is one of the contributing factors that Chris cited in his parting note. And not without good reason.

Suicide is a subject about which there is much cause to be cautious. It is, after all, a matter of life and death. Yet looking over this post specifically it does not appear to fit the category of harmful or irresponsible. I am glad to see that it was received positively and not the victim of a typical knee-jerk downvote spiral.
