i didnt know the guy or his friends or what was going on in his life, but i do have some things to say about what happend.
firstly, when it comes down to it we are all responsible for our own actions. meaning no one is truly to blame. people like to say, well i wish i could have done something or i wish i could have tried to stop him from doing it.
in the end it was his choice and he did it and thats that.
but, open your eyes. i would bet everything i own that he displayed CLEAR warning signs weeks, maybe even months or years prior to the date of his suicide.
what i am getting at is, if anyone reading this right now has ANY friends or family members that you suspect might be suicidal, or even going through a tough case of depression, talk to them.
dont be afraid to ask them if they have been thinking about suicide. if you are close to them, they will probably tell you and thats a clear sign right there to go get help for them.
the sad thing is, even though hes his own responsibility, it could have been prevented.
as i said earlier, i didnt know him or his situation, but id bet that his close friends saw the warning signs and chose to be optimistic about the situation.
id bet they simply thought, ah he will snap out of it soon enough.
and the fact of the matter is that some times people dont snap out of it. they get stuck in their depression and their options for coping run out.
sadly, that seems to be what has happened to this guy.
to anyone out there who has a friend at risk, dont let it happen to them. do everything you can to help them. and if they say they have been thinking about suicide, call their fucking parents for christs sake.
