jess368 There is no real answer to the question Why. People search for that answer everytime a loved one dies by suicide. 90% of people who die by suicide have a diagnosable mental disorder, many who arent treated. Unless you have been in that dark tunnel with no...

jess368 It is a horrible sad situation. As a two time survivor all I can say is we get through the loss. We learn from the pain, and we grow. We become advocates, and hopefully prevent future suicides. Doctors need to know how important it is to treat depression, and...

jess368 First of all, suicide is not illegal. Second, no one is really to blame. over 90% of people who die by suicide have a diagnosable mental disorder. The person either does not know they should get help, or is afraid to, or has tried and help failed. Sometimes...
