I’ve lost friends to suicide. One helped the other, and then couldn’t handle it so he helped himself. and as someone who loved both of them for over 30 years and had to remain 3,000 miles away when it happened- i couldn’t be there for either of them. This is going to be there with me for the rest of my fucking life. So… yeah. I think I have a place in the subject to speak my mind on it.
It fucked up a LOT of people that will NEVER get over it. So, yeah. I get to say it. It’s fucking selfish. Does that minimize it? NO. Does that dismiss it? NO. But the loss is absolutely CRUSHING for those that they leave behind. And everyone that thinks to do something so harsh- absolutely needs to know this before they carry it out.
Suicide is a permanent solution to temporary problems.
