First off I am fine and not considering anything, this was just a thought that popped into my head while reading something today.
The internet increases suicidal thoughts and action. A common belief among suicidal people is that they are a burden on their friends and family. If you go on to any online forum and ask for advice about your problems people will tell you that having a heart-to-heart with your spouse or parents about your problems is "burdening them" and it is better to shell out thousands of dollars for therapy or do nothing at all. For that reason I don't think it's farfetched to draw a line connecting the increase in suicide with the increased usage of these forums.
Just a thought.
