    Suicidal thoughts and homicidal thoughts are very similar to each other. Even if we think of it as “harming only yourself to harming everyone but yourself” our brains think of it as “harm a human” and the target is just switched. Plus, harming everyone around you and getting sentenced to life in prison is arguably a greater “self sabotage” than suicide.
