I hesitate to say this because I think anything that keeps you from committing suicide is a good thing. But I've known a couple families who lost someone to suicide and, from those who knew them, there was no judgement, only sympathy, and no reason for them to be embarrassed.
I kinda get it though. I often lie IRL about how my wife died. Rather than drugs, I'll blame it on an aneurysm or something. Not because I'm afraid of being judged, but because I'm afraid she'll be judged as just another junkie.
