I wholeheartedly support this.

Never hold your farts in. They travel up your spine and into the brain, where they ferment. They then migrate to your keyboard via your fingers. That's where shiptoasts come from.

This is an especially poignant and relevant thread given the recent news about the death of Robin Williams.
If I could like the OP multiple times I would.

The best thing to do if faced with a suicidal person is stay with them, be non-judgemental, and ask direct questions.
"Are you thinking about hurting yourself?"
"Do you have something on-hand to use to kill yourself"
"It must be rough, feeling like this. Tell me more about what made you feel depressed?"
Changing the subject doesn't work. The whole time of suicidal ideation is a very subjective, emotional time, and by asking direct questions that require thought, you're forcing more objective logic-based brain centers to operate.
In the end, your best best is to get them to an ER, so a professional can do a full evaluation and get the ball rolling on help. I would be very interested in seeing the sources you have that support your first statements. Lady Areola is a health professional IIRC.
