Please don't take either down. Please make an exception. It isn't like a normal article post, and sure you don't want this to become a trend, but damn we're also in a mental health crisis as a society right now, and meaningful conversations are going on in the comments of both of these posts.

This isn't a mental health community, but these posts happened and got their upvotes and that shows there's a group of HN readers right now for whom this is as important as anything else they might find on HN. It could be there's folks who can't or won't see what they need to see to help themselves outside of the serendipity of HN happening to bubble them up to the front page.
