Babble does not offer therapy. I see my hands as being tied. If someone I knew was suicidal, I would urge them to get help in real life ASAP. If my "helping" is seen as pressure, then I feel silenced & will no longer offer help to people who appear to me to be be asking for that help.
The FAQ has explicit statements about seeking help IRL and getting the help you need. What is the point of the FAQ if some things are arbitrarily followed?
Cyber hugs will not prevent death.
