I was not the first time he did it. I tried to kill himself when we were still in high school. He cut his wrist 9 times but he was able to rush to the hospital and survived. He was a guy who don't usually speak out his problems. He came from a broken family and at 32 years old he still lived with his father and a younger sister. Just this week I got a message from a friend that he did committed suicide again but this time, he hang himself and died. I felt a bit guilty because I never got a chance to talk to him and this Christmas and New Year, that maybe he might had opened up to me his problem. I really miss my friend.

It's a sad story. Your friend killing himself. Some people have a hard time to speak out their feelings and his is when depression sits in. Depression could be avoided if the people around one who's suffering from it could give support and assurance that everything could be worked out. Too sad , you did not have the chance to see and talk to him. May God rest his tormented soul!

So sorry that happen to your friend. Wish you were able to help him. But dont blame yourself for his problems.
Just remember all the happy things you and him had.
Hope you have a great day!

That's very sad. It's sad to miss a friend especially in a very tragic way. We can't turn back the time, but we can always think of the what ifs and what could have been.
You might have been able to save him but it was not all in your hands. If he wanted to be saved, he would not even decided to do that. He's old enough to know what's right or wrong. He decided that himself and didn't want to be saved.

Losing a friend is the greatest loss one can have in life. Its also not fruitful to cry over spilled milk. As a friend we do have responsibility to help them in need. A true friend understands one another without really speaking them out. So, i would suggest you to forgot this and move on in life. But most important you should make a pledge to not to repeat this mistake again and to help the friends in need.
