In medicine we have a saying: on a scale of 10, death is an 8. It’s not clear to me that suicide is the worst case scenario. For example we have a really good family friend whose daughter has attempted suicide multiple times and has been in an inpatient psychiatric facility for over a year. She’s 13. Her first attempt was at age 11. The state of California is out of beds for this sort of thing so she’s several hundred miles away in another state. Do you think the SWEs, PMs, or executives at FaceBook, Instagram, Snap, or TikTok do volunteer work at these facilities? Do you even think they know where such facilities are?
