`Suicide is a personal choice`
I hear this all the time, and I could not disagree more. As someone who has been "there" more than once, suicide is not a personal choice.
And I'd also like to extend the same offer. I've been blessed to have someone else on HN do this for me and contribute to my recovery. If there's someone you need to lend an ear and listen, or speak with you, I'm here.

But the battle against suicide must be fought, ultimately, in the hearts and minds of those who are likely to succumb to it. I did not mean to be callous or ignorant.
