The argument that Philip Marshall would not commit suicide before the Super Bowl because he was a Saints fan is bad thinking and ignores how mental health crises affect priorities.

That is real bad thinking. Wow. That's nuts. Wow. He loved the Saints. The Super Bowl was being held in New Orleans, and so he couldn't have possibly committed suicide prior to that. Because he'd put it off until after the Super Bowl. I don't think that this is a good understanding of how people in crisis act. When you're in a mental health crisis... Other things, they're not as important. Things that you used to find great enjoyment in, you no longer really feel that much for. Hobbies fall away, pastimes, groups that you're involved in, you just drop out of. It's something that is very common to people who are in major depressive episodes. So the idea that, oh, he loved the Super Bowl, that is not good thinking.
