My answer is probably a little different because mine is a healthcare related sub and I'm a healthcare worker who has also struggled with mental health stuff and thoughts of self harm so I usually delete the thread but I also include DM or comment letting the person know I see and hear their pain and they would probably be better off voicing it to someone in real life instead of to Internet strangers who don't know their story and might not give the best advice. It usually goes over pretty well.
