I have a friend of mine that commited suicide when we were younger, he was def. very depressed, about what no one really ever knew, but he went from being the kid that played hockey with us, baseball and on a daily basis to not wanting to do anything, to staying in his room and not coming out at all. He took a shotgun off his fathers gun rack put it to his stomach and pulled the trigger with his toes at about 2am one Saturday night. It took less than 3 months for his down spiral.
Speaking first hand, because I have had issues with Suicide since I was younger, not sure if it was the curiosity of it, or something about it at that age, not really sure. But I was an active kid, plenty of friends, played every sport and just did my thing but I can remember thinking about hanging myself in my closet when I was younger, again not sure why.
Last year on July 7th one day before my Birthday, do to a chain of events in my life I decided I was going to slit my wrists, im sure the fact that I had been drinking which made me a suicidal mess that night played a huge roll in it. Someone very close to me was on the phone with me justn prior to me deciding I was going to do that, that person called the cops whom showed up a few minutes later. I havent done anything since that night and dont think about it much.
Know im happy that I didnt do it, I have an amazing son and daughter I would have been leaving behind and that alone kills me to think about, even today.
When it comes to this topic so many people have no clue, I have someone I know very well for over 10 years who has gone on to make comments that "People that try to commit suicide should die because their stupid."
Comments like that show me how fucking really stupid people like that are.
