TIFU by making one of my good friends think I was suicidal.

This isn't much of a fuck up but I didn't know where else to post. My friend, we'll call him John, and I went to highschool together at a private school for kids with therapeutic needs. Pretty much every kid was suicidal or severely depressed at some point in their young life. At the school whenever someone looked like they were trying to give their valuable stuff away, jewelry, video games, whatever, it gave us all the idea they were suicidal at the time.

Flash forward 13 years, john and i are still very close to this day. Recently I put my guitar on fb marketplace. I was mainly looking to trade so I listed the price as $1 and made notes saying what I was mainly looking for. John happens to scroll by my listing and thinks why is he selling a guitar for $1 when he could get hundreds for it? Is he okay?

John then texts me saying I saw your listing, please rethink what you're doing and call me asap. I reply saying rethink it? I know i played our first school concerts together with it and it has a lot of sentimental value, but its time to move on. Did you want it or something? John says no dude I don't want the guitar I want you to be okay and not hurt yourself. I start cracking up. I told him to look at the description. I said I'm looking to trade it, not give away a free telecaster and kill myself. He feels super relieved and we proceed to laugh our asses off together.

TL;DR: one of my best friends thought I was suicidal because I put an $800 guitar on fb marketplace for $1
