That's a lot of loss of people close to you.
Just reading about it is painful. I'd second the thoughts about talking with someone about it.

It worked....but the subway has a large number of suicides as well. The amount of suicides never seem to reduce. Sad situation. I also have a friend who's daughter committed suicide a few days before Christmas. It's something I can't even imagine dealing with. Sent from my SM-G935W8 using Tapatalk |

Utter meaningless and emptiness, feeling there's no hope and no chance things will ever get better, and most importantly being completely convinced that no one cares.
I've been closer than I want to be. Never, ever assume that people know you care.

Really sorry to read this. It's a sad and horrible thing to have to go through for everyone.

A close friend of mine committed suicide about 10 years ago, and I still think about him often. He was working a dead-end job, while struggling to repay his law school loans. His fiancee had broken off their engagement a few months earlier. His behavior was becoming more erratic, and he talked to me jokingly (I thought) about committing suicide, but when I heard the news that he had jumped out a window in his office building, I couldn't believe it.

Please remember that this is first and foremost a forum made up of real people going through real things. And, many of these people feel that the forum is a community-family-place to come and share the good and bad in their lives. Oh, sometimes cycling stuff too. So, if you can see through the bad feelings, maybe reach out to Keith and the rest of the community. Send him some positive vibes. Maybe it will help with what you are going through as well. Good thoughts going your way...

Keith
I apologize for my message. No value in my bringing money matters at the Golden Gate into the conversation related to your sadness. Not my best side and I only hope the best for you and those you care about.

Part of $200M would do better if it went to treatment facilities, docs etc.. Just my opinion. I think most of us have been closer than we'd like to be, for whatever reason. Something as seemingly benign as losing a job, seems like it just sucks but for some not having a purpose can be that trigger. The human mind is more complicated than can be fathomed.

I'm so sorry to hear of this. Like so many others I too have lost too many people in my life to suicide. It never seems to get easier but instead just gets smaller as time moves on.
