Your links do nothing to establish any root cause. One is a case report of someone with multiple confounding factors (PTSD, polydrug abuse, prescription drug, and a recent bereavement), the other is a statistical study deducing that more suicides happen at night when you weight for the probability of people being awake. The latter posits being awake at night as a causal factor, but doesn't consider the obvious possibility that suicidality might make it harder for someone to sleep. It says nothing about circadian alignment because the dataset is based on times of death, not prior sleep habits. These studies don't make a good case for your claim, and as I pointed out the relevance of your claim is highly questionable. If you're struggling with this issue yourself you're better off talking to a doctor than trying to broadcast public service announcements on a weak scientific foundation.

> Your links do nothing to establish any root cause. Am I going to listen to you, or to what the links directly say: 1. Nighttime wakefulness predicts next-day suicidal ideation,6 and reducing nocturnal wakefulness may reduce suicidal thinking in at-risk populations.7 2. Being awake at night confers greater risk for suicide than being awake at other times of the day, suggesting disturbances of sleep or circadian neurobiology may potentiate suicide risk. If you actually want to negate the claims, go find yourself a new reference that negates them. As for your comment: > If you're struggling with this issue How dare you. Just piss off, you patronizing jerk. I am not struggling with it, and if I were, I certainly wouldn't take advice from a slimebag.
