Hey, I just wanted to get out here and say a little thing.
I understand the appeal to especially announce suicides, death by specific diseases, etc, in the interest of prevention. I really do. But especially in terms of respecting the privacy and intimacy of death, please don’t take it upon yourself to announce someone’s suicide in a public Facebook post.
Please also don’t, in that same post, feel compelled to analyze their last post on social media and claim you think it’s connected.
Please respect the privacy of the dead and their close friends and family unless they specifically want you to announce their loved one’s suicide for prevention purposes.
