A lot of my friend's know that I recently moved out of a board and care in Santa Monica. I lived there for there years. Last week, I found out that a dear friend of mine had hung herself in her room. One of the staff found her. She was a very nice person, but she was always down and depressed. Every time you asked how she was doing, she would talk about the pain that she was in or something someone had done to her.
She had a boyfriend, they seemed to love each other, boy often had disagreements. They had recently got into it, before she killed herself. I believe that she was in her early sixties, but she was very attractive for her age. Many of the guys admired her. Her boyfriend was in his forties. We had gotten so use to her being down that we accepted that as just being the type of person that she was.
Sometimes, I would avoid talking to her because she would hold me up with her problems. Whenever we had peas for dinner, her boyfriend would start a food fight with me. I would throw them at her too. She would just laugh and laugh. It was cool to see her laughing. She could get me back and look just as innocent as could be. But I would know that she did it.
My best friend called me and told me. She said that there was a Psychologist available to counsel them. At first, she did not feel that she needed to see him, but she did later on. He told her that not only had the girl been doing drugs, but she had been selling them too. We already knew that she had been taking drugs, but it was a shock to find out that she had been selling them also.
It is just a real sad story all around. When I was leaving the facility she had given me a cute Hello Kitty radio. I have had to use it, because my stereo is in storage. She was really a nice person and she will be greatly missed by all who knew her. Rest in peace, Jeanette.

Hi Rozie dear! Sorry that your friend passed away. It is sad when you hear things like this and whatever her pain and faults are, may she rest in peace now. I believe that she is now happy coming home to the Father. There she will no longer feel sadness but will always know/feel only love.
Take care and blessings to you!

I am so sorry Rozie, its hard to loose a friend. That is so sad, its sad whenever someone feels that their life is not worth living. We all get depressed sometimes, I do understand that her situation was major depression all the time. So very sad, thanks for sharing your sorrow with us.

I am sorry that you have lost a friend, but it sounds like she was already lost and just sort of filling time. She must have been in lots of pain. Not just physical. I hope you do not let this take you down a road of despair. Hang in there friend.

I'm so sorry to hear that you have lost your friend. My youngest son had married his true love and they were married just a year and she did the same thing. This happened just after the hospital let her go and didn't help her. SHe told them she needed help, they released her.
This happened just 2 years ago, almost. We lost a beloved girl that we all loved so much. SHe was like my own daughter. She is missed a lot.
Just think that she is no longer in pain. That's what helps us when we think of our girl. She is at peace now.
Bless you and her family and other friends.

Please accept my condolences on the loss of your friend. Sometimes people can not accept and deal with all of the obstacles thrown their way in life. Since your friend was always depressed, she was certainly a walking time bomb. She was probably feeling hopeless, and felt that ending her life was her only choice. Hold on to the memories you had, whenever you want to laugh, think of the pea fights and how that made your friend laugh.
God bless

my goodness..she wasn't able to bear the pain inside her heart..if only i'm one of her friend i wont stay away from her..i will always be on her side..i would take care of her..and that man i will let him to be consulted in a guidance counselor. the worst thing jeanette did in her life is causing saucide..everybody know that saucide is not the will of God..it's her own will and she will be judge on the coming day..even she is good but what she did is against from our Maker..

I know how you feel. I keep thinking that maybe if I had stayed, she would have had me to talk to. We always feel like there may have been something that we could have done. I am a very caring friend and I know in my heart that I did the best that I could for her. But one person can only do so much and I had to look out for myself also. If I had something to do or somewhere to go,unfortunately, I could not just sit around and listen to her.
This is why we have God to lean on. He promised that he would never leave us or forsake us.

that's a sad real story...condolence to ur friend. She missed a lot of things in life which is the greatest gift we received from God. (^_^) It serves as a lesson to many not to end our lives even if we are facing a lot of hardships and difficulties, we should remain to be strong and have faith in God alone.
