Best wishes man, keep your head up and don't do anything to hurt yourself during your grief.

Suicide is always hard because it can just sandbag you. There's nothing shows the gap between people as much as it.... In the end, people are the ones with the power over their lives and we can just love them till they go.
RIP

I had the same happening to me 2 years ago.
What got me through it was to start hating the person who killed himself. Suicide is just about the most selfish act of all imo.
RIP

This almost happened to me like few weeks ago. The thing with friend commiting suicide is, I learned, you are completely blindsided by it. You think your friend is just fine, but then, BOOM, for no reason whatsoever (to unsuspecting friends) they commit suicide. It really is "wtf dude, why didn't you talk your problems out with us?"
RIP

I don't want to be disrespectful to the OP and cause trouble in this thread but I have to say that 'hating the person who killed himself' is a very bad way of going about this. It's a very complicated issue and I think to call it 'the most selfish act of all' is a bit obtuse. Most people that kill themselves cannot cope with their situation and the only thing they can think about is a way out.
Sorry for your loss and keep your head up.

fuck that's gotta suck...
sorry man and RIP :|
|
rip.
Do you have any idea why he did it?
|
Happened to me too a few years back. I just don't think about it, you can never really know what's inside someone else's head. Obviously, it still sucks.
|
I know how it feels man, a friend of mine also suicided.
Condolences and RIP.

I've had several friends die or kill themselves in these past few years. Don't ever blame yourself for their weaknesses or misgivings. Support your friends as best as you can and try to remember the good times but do not dwell or get overly sentimental. Life ... goes... on.

Everyone copes in their own way and in a situation like this it is far better to just state your own view if you need to but not to contradict someone else imo. Losing someone close to you means you basically get to feel whatever you want.
I'm very sorry you lost your friend.

This happened to me almost exactly a year ago. Try not to think about what you could have done, that's all I can say.
|
I don't get it why people say that suicide is a selfish act. Why should someone continue living his/her miserable life just because their existence provides comfort for someone else?

Exactly. They look for a way out. A way out for themselves. But if there are people who love you and you think about killing yourself, you shouldn't think about what the suicide does for you (because it obviously rids yourself of all problems you ever had, currently have, or would have in the future).
You should think about what it does to the people around you.

that must suck, sorry bro! may he rest in peace =(.

Been there. It'll take a while to get through, but it'll happen. Condolences, man.

My Heartfelt sorrow brother. The end of any life is a tradegy. Don't blame yourself and live a life for you both.
RIP

My sincere condolences.
+ Show Spoiler +Suicide is not selfish. Selfish is a word that, day-to-day, describes petty human action. Suicide is not petty. It is the ultimate decision, and consider the deep suffering that person was experiencing as they personally chose to say goodbye, forever, to everyone they love. If I had a friend who was suffering that much, and it could not be solved, then I would not want him/her to stick around just to please me.

My immediate blood family would be the only deterrants to suicide. If I offed myself and my friends started hating me cause I didn't whine to them about it fuck em. I'll fuck up their imacs before going to hell. Suicide has to be scary and painful, anyone who does it is pretty damn sure they want out. They don't exist to be a blip in their friends lives.

condolences, man I hope you're already to move forward once you're done mourning your dear friend. May he rest in peace now...

Sorry for your loss. Maybe you can do something cathartic (like writing something for him) to help you understand your feelings and get through it. Please don't blame your friend, though. The reasons a person commits suicide is not always clear. It could be a triumph of personality, or it could be a person who just couldn't see good in life anymore. The world is a strange and confusing thing, and sometimes we just have to accept what's happened.

Thank you all for the kind words and support. TL really is a great community, guess I'll try to move on for now. Hopefully one day I'll understand why this happened.

I know how it feels man. I lost a friend back in November, but due to my irregular sleeping patterns; I didn't find out until December, thus missing the funeral.
Died in a car accident. He was the only friend I truly cherished during my racist-heavy high-school where no one took me seriously or gave me an ounce of respect.
He just started Starcraft when I saw him after a long time of being apart.
I'm sorry for your loss.

Im sorry for you man. my best friend wanted to kill his self 5 years ago but i was lucky that i could talk to him and say that everything is gonna be alright. It was so scary when i saw him standing on the bridge. (family troubles, no alcohol)
RIP

My condolences, I'm sorry for your loss.
I hope you do ok, and that you can deal with this tragedy in your life.
RIP
