Not quite.

The problem with issues like depression and suicide is that while they can be quantified, doing so does not help in understanding, or in predicting individual human behavior.

Suicide is not exclusive to depression, and not all depressed people become suicidal to the point of developing and executing a plan.

Right now I need some sleep and I'll get back to this thread, and maybe even say something coherent.
