if you live in the US and have ever sent a message telling the recipient to kill themselves, you’ve committed the felony of encouraging suicide and, depending on the state’s laws (meaning, what class of felony it is), you could be looking at a fine of $25,000+ and 10+ years in prison, just for encouragement

and if they actually do it, you are legally responsible and, in some states, you can also be charged with manslaughter

do people not realize this or
