They SHOULD see a professional and sometimes the only way to get that to happen is to cut them off. You're not helping someone in the long term by "talking them off the ledge" every month.

Why do you feel qualified to make this assessment while calling other people's assessments wrong? I get that you believe in yourself more than others, as is healthy, but there's no one way to go about this. You could be doing that monthly until the switch flips in their head for them to go get more in depth help. And not doing that could cause them to not be able to make it another month to come to that realization. I don't get why genuinely attempting to help someone is such a nono for you. Seems to me like the person is personally taking on a responsibility that they don't have to in hopes that they can actually help. While your thing is the person taking no action and leaving it up to the chance that they magically come to the conclusion they need more help than someone online can provide. Leading someone to a conclusion isn't an impossible task. It way more possible than doing nothing and the person randomly clicking with no outside help.

A lot if suicidal people feel like it's them against the world. You not trying to be an ally just confirms that that is the case.
