Mental illness is mentall illness, regardless of the profession.

Trying to boast superiority over sick people is silly.

It is an answer, it's just an answer to a question that most people don't hear.

Problem is the growing trend of progressivism has turned everything into a choice. Suicide should never be a choice. That's why suicide rates are up 30%.

Life is depression. Life for most people is hard. Life for most people sucks.

Take it on and keep going.

Said as someone who has never had suicidal ideation. The trigger doesn't have to be something big. In fact a big stress event may not even trigger the suicidal thought process at all. There is no warning or portents until that flip gets switched. Like a lot of mental illness the person suffering in their rational moments thinks that they don't need help because they were able to deal with it so far.
