*nodnod* Yeah, I mean a part of me thinks that maybe I just misread the situation, and I don't want to seem like I'm just talking shit about them because I'm angry, but it was really, really hurtful whether or not they'd intended it to be. If they'd have said "we can't do that right now but maybe next year!" or even "that's a good idea, but we don't want to do it," I'd have been fine.
I also got irritated that none of the survivors in the (admittedly two) videos for national suicide awareness day they put out talked about struggling with suicidal thoughts and mental illness before or after the suicide. Seriously, they couldn't have found ONE person to talk about this?
Bah! Anyway, sorry to derail. Thanks for these links :)
