I do not wish to derail the thread but I have a question. Someone I know is constantly threatening but so far has not done it. Is this really what someone with suicidal thoughts does, from what I’ve read no it’s not. So, those who know people or have been close, were they/you constantly threatening?
you just never know.
A controlling person might do that ie 'threaten but never mean it' but you never know, if someone mentions it to you it could mean they are thinking about it because they feel alone and unsupported so they might be making a cry for help by saying they are having suicidal thoughts.
My schoolfriend's father often threatened it and eventually he did it.
During lockdown a friend's husband spoke about having had enough. He went walkabout one day. He was found two days later by a dogwalker.
Then there are those who suffer alone and never say a word about having those thoughts.
