It's so hard to talk when you want to kill yourself. That's above and beyond everything else, and it's not a mental compliant - it's a physical thing, like it's physically hard to open your mouth and make words come out. They don't come out smooth and in conjunction with your brain the way normal peoples words do; they come out in chunks as if from a crushed-ice dispenser; you stumble on them and tent gather up behind your lower lip. So you just keep quiet.
