Don't think they've said that. They simply said they didn't want to depict any of the suicide onscreen.

In terms of warning people off, I don't think discussing the physical pain of killing yourself is worth any exploration, as people in that frame of mind aren't thinking in those terms anyway, if they want to do something the thought of it "hurting" won't change anything.

The thing they want to tackle is what leads to suicide in the first place, feeling isolated and like you can't talk to anyone.
