It's far easier to get the person with vivid memories of contemplating suicide to be more cautious than to get everyone in general to be more gentle.
Well, that's certainly a good point, but I wasn't talking to everyone in general, either.
Please see "I wasn't contemplating suicide per se". I knew in advance that I would decide to keep fighting, as I always do. It is actually a technique I use to cheer myself up, rather like being underwater, and dipping down just a bit so that you can kick off the ground in order to spring back to the surface.
