Mistaken for Suicidal | comment |
A character is standing on a ledge or behaving in a somber manner when someone else notices them. The person starts worrying that the other person is going to try and kill themself, but it turns out it's Not What It Looks Like. This trope is Played for Laughs just as often as it's Played for Drama. It may result in an Unwanted Rescue. This occuring between two strangers often turns into a Meet Cute: One mistakes the other for trying to kill themselves, helps them, learns that the other was just fine, and they spark a bond. Compare to Interrupted Suicide, which is when someone is actually stopped from committing suicide, Mistaken for Brooding, for when a character thinks someone is sad but not suicidal, and Make It Look Like an Accident, which can result in the murderer trying to make a murder seem like a suicide. This can occur if a character looks like they're having a Prelude to Suicide. |

A few years into Sluggy Freelance, Torg is forced into bankruptcy, which finishes off his freelance web design business for good. Riff rushes in on Torg standing on a stool, seemingly about to hang himself, and demands that Torg "put that noose down." It turns out that Torg is simply changing a lightbulb while wearing a shirt and tienote which can be used as a noose, but that's beside the point and is preparing for a job interview, but Riff still thinks Torg seeking a full-time job is akin to suicide. | |

In The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, if Link tries to jump off a bridge while a certain NPC is nearby he will stop him. Link has a paraglider in this game, and the game features Soft Water, so he's not in any real danger. Nevertheless, there's a certain subtle Fridge Horror to this given the After the End setting. How many other people must that NPC have met on that bridge who really have been Driven to Suicide? | |

RWBY has an in-universe subversion in the first season, when Jaune thinks Pyrrha's mistaken him for suicidal: she brings him to the roof of the school, and he awkwardly says, "I know I'm going through a hard time right now, but I'm not that depressed..." After she realizes how he interpreted it, she quickly leads him away from the edge and explains that that's not what she meant; she'd intended it as a private place for them to train together. | |

His attempts to convince him not to jump (despite the worker loudly telling him that he's just there to work) are so poorly-worded that the man winds up actually deciding to kill himself. | |

After her teachers read it, they worry about her mental health and make her go to the school psychologist. Ginger insists that it's just a poem but all her friends think she's suicidal (though they don't use those words). | |

The first issue of the post-52 iteration of Justice Society of America sees Power Girl and Mister Terrific going to recruit Maxine Hunkel, the granddaughter of the Golden Age Red Tornado, and they find her about to jump off the roof of her dorm. Since she has a history of depression, they are naturally concerned, but it turns out that she is just practicing her new wind-control abilities. | |

In Mr Monk Is A Mess, after a rough day full of instances of his world being shaken, Monk gulps down the remainder of a bottle of allergy pills in the victim's house. Lt. Devlin nearly tries to force him to vomit them back out, and Stottlemeyer tries to tell him that overdosing is not the answer to his problems. It turns out Monk swallowed them to prove his assertion that the victim's pharmacist killed him — he knew they were placebos. | |

In The Avengers (2012), after Selvig wakes up from Loki's brainwashing, Natasha finds him looking over the edge of Stark Tower's roof, like he's thinking about jumping. Natasha tries to talk him down, only for him to reveal that he's not looking at the ground; he's looking at Loki's scepter a few stories down, which is the key to closing the portal. | |

In Hasoda's The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, the main character tries to jump out of her bedroom window but is stopped by her concerned little sister. The thing is, she wasn't trying to kill herself; she was trying to time-leap, and hadn't quite figured out how to do it properly. | |

Played with in the manga of School-Live!. When Kurumi and Miki end up finding a gun in rubble, Kurumi decides that it would be a good way to fight zombies, however Miki discards it. She says that it's because they have no training and thus the gun would likely be more dangerous to them, though it's also implied she believes Kurumi would use it on herself someday. The ambiguous part is whether if it was this trope, or if Kurumi would really use it to kill herself if she ever felt suicidal or if she began turning into a zombie again. | |

Frasier, being no stranger to the Mistaken for Index, has a few examples of fake-out suicides Played for Laughs. In "Are You Being Served?," Niles is distraught at the breakdown of his marriage and locks himself in the bathroom. Frasier passionately speaks to Niles through the door, telling him that his life isn't over. He and the others are then shocked to hear a BANG from inside the bathroom. Frasier cautiously opens the door... and sees Niles covered head-to-toe in foam because Martin's automatic shaving cream dispenser exploded. In "Frasier's Curse," Frasier suffers a string of bad luck and is despondent for some time. Niles enters the apartment to see Frasier sticking his head in the oven and rushes over, assuming the worst. It turns out that Frasier was just cleaning it — and it's an electric oven, not gas, so it wouldn't have killed him anyway. |

In the song "Spring" by Rammstein a man stands at the edge of a bridge to admire the view, but a crowd forms believing he is trying to jump. The protagonist gets pushed off by an impatient bystander. Though the man in the song wasn't suicidal and thought that the people who formed the mob hated him, it is explained that the pusher thought that they were actually doing him a favor. | |
