Suicide is painless.

[Betticus]

Through early morning fog I see

visions of the things to be

the pains that are withheld for me

I realize and I can see...

 

[Betticus]

I've just learned that a friend of mine's depression may have grown to be too much for him to bear. He moved to Canada about a year ago, left a cryptic suicide note and disappeared. His family and friends can't manage to contact him. He is only 20.

No, that's pretty much what I think of in these situations. Sometimes it just hurts too much.

The hardest thing to fix is a broken spirit or mend a broken heart.

I hope your friend is alright B and sends you and his family good wishes.

No shit, I hope he's just drunk somewhere and pops up! His mom though thinks he committed suicide. I'm still holding out hope.

Yes it is.

My prayers for your friend, Betticus...

Betticus, i'm sorry, and i do hope He is alright and will turn up 'ok'. i cannot imagine the fear and pain his family is going through, my thoughts and prayers are defiantly with Him, His family, and You. my ex boyfriends best friend killed himself a few years ago, He hung himself in the mountains of California a hiker found him, and i know the pain that my ex went through with this, but hopefully hopefully hopefully this is not the case and he's as you said drunk somewhere and will pop up soon...:::hugs:::

my heart is with all involved



There are times when it just seems, well, you know.
And for most there is no easy or safe way to talk about such things.

...
it brings on many changes....

Oh my goodness...I hope he is ok Bett...keep us posted.
** Hopeful thoughts and warm hugs for all involved **

Well, so far nothing by phone. His accountant says that none of his accounts have been used including atm or checks or credit cards. He's not been on the net and that's been confirmed by his ip activity. It's been almost two weeks but his lawyer said that he keeps enough cash in his safe that he could be out there and just off the grid.

He better just be involved with some damn girl or something!

Hugs..I hope he's ok coz I know how someone's suicide affects others around him/her...not nice nor pretty..you know where to find me if you want to talk

It's difficult to know what to do in these situations.




I was going to write a whole long briochian spiel after that, but on second thought I'm not gonna. I feel for you, because you are in pain, but there are people in this world that can't be fixed. I'm not saying we shouldn't grieve them, and maybe even grieve the fact that society has got to the point that we have such people. I'm more worried on the effect this is having on YOUR mental health. So I think that if there's anything we can do for you, you know we'll do it, if we can. Myself included.

*hugs* i hope he is ok Betticus! I will pray for him

 

[Niniane]

That's so sad. I have an idea of what your friend is going through. I will send out some positive thoughts for both your friend and yourself.

 

[nowgirl]

same... i know exactly how he feels. asking for help can be the hardest thing to do. sending good karma, too - and praying for the very best outcome.

Oh, Betticus, I hope everything turns out okay!

 

[Betticus]

Ok, he showed up and I already informed him of the ass kicking he will be receiving.

He was out snowmobiling and camping out in the middle of nowhere, didn't tell anyone where he was going and he had set up some automatic 48 hour later suicide note email that he forgot to disable.

The asskicking is inevitable!

Holy crap.

I hate to hear that he did that, but given the alternative, I'm glad to hear he did that.

I'm assuming the line to kick his ass is single file?
