    Two prominent suicides in one week is concerning. I could tweet the hotline phone number again, but people generally know how to find that. Please extend some real-life compassion to those who may be struggling.

        There are well over two suicides every week. Just because two celebrities kill themselves doesnt make it more noteworthy. Yet it gets noted more.

        Pedantic. Two “prominent” suicides is what I said. Which matters because the coverage can create a “meme” that impels others to suicide.

        Sometimes people just get tired of living and make a rational decision to stop. Have you considered this?

        The point is not to cast judgment on the people who committed suicide. It’s that prominent suicides could create a “meme” that impels others in a vulnerable state to commit suicide, who otherwise would not have.

        More compassion needs to be shown to all, those who are struggling often dont show it!

        Thank you. Please expose the #BigPharma issue. I almost died by suicide in 2012-2013 because of meds. Doctors wanted to do ECT on me I said no! It's the drugs not me! Today I am med free but not 100% but I fight every day of my life to beat down the demons. 🙏#RIPAnthonyBourdain

        I wonder if the people around these two suicides knew if they were struggling

        Is there a link between the increase in suicide and the increased use of anti-depressant drugs?

        Tweeting hotline numbers I more comfortable, and makers people feel good about themselves, though

        45,000 people kill themselves in the US every year. Why is this only talked about when it happens to a celebrity?
