    I have experienced serious suicidal ideation in my life. Standing at the bathroom mirror with a knife to my skin still needed a very difficult step, no matter how much I thought I wanted to do it. With a gun, I would very likely have applied the pressure to injure myself, or worse.

    Sharp metal does not explode into you the same way as a bullet does, and it does not move that fast with as little effort.
