GAH I LOVED this article. Meta-cognitively transcending more than he even says, I think. (Also, it has a typo!)

Step by Step, OOOh baby, you're the reason why I sing this song!

The show "Step By Step" made me climb a few of these steps in the past.

Reading the Six Steps would be more than enough to push me over the edge.

This is really good and heartbreaking to read. It reminds me of instances of suicide that have left others I know as survivors.

An interesting subcategory would also be suicide by failure of self-care, as in the case of some non-compliant diabetics.

Warning for people who, say, might have to write 30 pages of their thesis in the next three days: TRIGGERING!

I have just hopelessly fucked up the "edit your comment" business, i think.
