Reddit has this thing where, if someone reports your comment for self-harm, regardless of validity, they send you an automated (and IMO useless at best, harmful at worst) "we're here for you" DM.
It's often used as a way to anonymously imply that you should kill yourself, so I wonder if this sort of thing would affect that and how.
Though, overall, I think the censoring of self-harm stuff is already beyond ridiculous. Terms like "self-unalive", "self-terminate", "sewerslide" make a very serious issue sound like a joke. Blinding ourselves to isn't going to make these problems go away.
