Those who love to dramatize about how close they were to committing suicide, are generally coward and scared of death and...of course...lying. Having the emotional intuition to make a scene, yes, but never for real.
Those who actually committed suicide, generally have no empathy in this manner.
Nevertheless, one must also question those who put their hands upon God's ark, as Paul Washer puts it when he warned a fellow sister not to comfort a crying soul as it was called for all to repentance during a Gospel rally. How much damage those "counsellors-wanna-be" cause to these fragile souls when they rob them of a Godly life and addict them with emotional vanity? I'm sure, these would even dare to reply: If Uzzah did not hold the Ark, who's going to hold it? Paul Washer did it right and these could only receive the rebuke or begone.
The truly suicidal must be made strong by the word of God alone, not the smart lies from the psychiatrical world.
