Just to say one thing about your last point: this has been like my other experiences of knowing someone who killed themselves- it causes a lot of shock and despair, like a blast from the centre in their family, on to their close friends, colleagues, and even distant friends and family.
None of us should *ever* think that suicide is a tidy or harmless thing for others. Or that we are burdensome and the world will be better off without us. I am *not* suggesting that Sarr did think these things- I didnt know her well enough to make any assumptions.
But I suspect some of us may, sometimes? So this can be an example to all of us that such a perception is completely inaccurate. Whether or not we act on suicidal feelings, any concern for others should definitely be on the side of staying alive.
