[quote=Anonymous]PP. and I agree that depression and suicidal ideation should not be stigmatized -- yes people should feel no shame in getting help -- we have to be very careful about suicide itself. It should never be just another choice to people. It should never feel normal in any way. When I wrote that suicide should have a stigma, I meant it should feel taboo. Not suicidal ideation, suicide itself. From what I've read about suicide I think experts agree with me. Depression is not contagious but suicide is. Every person who dies by suicide increases the risk that family members will also die by suicide. And at colleges, it increases the risk that other students will die by suicide. That is why experts say over and over again that suicides should not get a lot of press attention.[/quote]
