    So just out of interest I googled "help with suicidal thoughts". As expected, a whole host of resources came up, so I looked through a couple. What do you know, this phrase sticks out as being potentially relevant here:

    "Don’t keep these suicidal feelings to yourself:
    Many of us have found that the first step to coping with suicidal thoughts and feelings is to share them with someone we trust. It may be a friend, a therapist, a member of the clergy, a teacher, a family doctor, a coach, or an experienced counselor at the end of a helpline. Find someone you trust and let them know how bad things are. Don’t let fear, shame, or embarrassment prevent you from seeking help. Just talking about how you got to this point in your life can release a lot of the pressure that’s building up and help you find a way to cope."

    The link is here, for those who want to look further. There is a lot of good sense on this page.

    No to belabour the point, but they are clear that sharing these feelings is important, and it doesn't necessarily matter who you share them with as long as it is someone you feel comfortable talking to. Yes, finding a doctor or therapist is important, and yes, if someone is thinking of acting then it is an emergency. Finding another way to communicate doesn't replace this, it complements it.

    Your googled advice on this is not welcome anywhere.
    You sure are full up with snarkiness on this topic, PJfan, I'll grant you that. I gather speed....
    Once and for all...

    That's me squinting to see because you are so far behind in my RVM.

    Trolling a thread like this one is ridiculous. Perhaps you should look into some professional help of your own.

    Which is why I say that suicidal thoughts are not to be addressed by an unprofessional mind.

    I didn't know there was a minimum post requirement in this thread which I have followed from the beginning. Maybe you had a serious point to start with in your mind, maybe not. Somebody refutes you with a solid post and your answer is it's not welcome here? No I wasn't being sarcastic. I've seen you troll on here enough times but Jesus, give it a rest.

    I hope the OP knows she and anyone else needing to is welcome to speak here anytime if it helps in some way, despite the seeming discouragement to do so.

    Really, no one is playing the "I'm not a doctor but I play one on the internet" card here. Just some people genuinely offering what they can at the time.

    You too dignin?

    People here are not offering anything to posters that say they have suicidal thoughts.
    They are deflecting the confession.
