Discussion How many people do you think you see in your daily life are suicidal?

[onbekend]

I'd personally say somewhere between 10-25 people average per day. Almost all of which are strangers.

Honestly I don't know. I don't see any people in my daily life bc I'm a hiki. As for my friends, I remember once I told my acquaintance that I'd rather die than work for a living and he said something like "don't do that that's terrible". I think that most people have a negative view on suicide. Maybe they have closeted suicidal ideation but I couldn't know…

I think none. After all, I don't really pass by many people to begin with

i haven't left my house in the last 3-4 months, but it's def a lot less than you'd think.

i remembered hearing that every1 has suicidal thoughts @ least once, & was talking abt that w a coworker @ work. she was adamant that was wrong, & i was adamant it was right bc it just made sense.

so to prove my point i asked the customer that i was checking out if they liked being alive. they looked @ me like i had 3 heads + gave my coworker a look, & said, "yeah....of course. doesn't every1, do u not??" & then i just stood there likefeeling crazy & out of place, lmaoooo.

Most people tend to enjoy life. Suicidal people are a very small minority.

Very very little. We are a rare breed

Maybe one or two

I don't meet many people, and the ones who meet me would never tell how I feel behind my mask. In fact, SanSu and you guys are one of the places I feel most at home, 'cause I can just be me.

The majority of people are not actively planning to commit suicide in the way you see on these forums, so i would put the number pretty low.

I only know two people irl who were suicidal. I have one friend who is passively suicidal. Another friend of mine shot herself when a teenager.
