When I saw the post on Jody's death, I almost made a comment similar to this, but I didn't know how to phrase it.

I'm afraid the terms "inspired" and "encouraged" don't properly convey the mechanism of "suicide waves". I'm still having a hard time describing it, but I think seeing suicides from people in a similar situation to you almost reminds you that suicide is an option at your disposal

Really?

Seems like a pretty damn good comment. Make it a top level on the next suicide thread, maybe it will help someone think more rationally about WHY they are suddenly looking at suicide as an option.
