Response to the Suicide is Slavery post

I hope that post was a troll. I did not find it funny. I work as an EMT, and part of my job is taking care of the mentally ill. I have responded to more successful suicides than I care to think about. Not only is it horrible for me, but it is worse for the family to walk in on. The trauma they experience often leads to a lifetime of mental damage. I hope the OP is alright. I also hope that anyone thinking of doing it instead dials 988 to get some help.
