I just found out last night that a good friend that I worked with shot himself. This other boy and I were the closest to him, and we were both really shaken by it. I work in a grocery store checking groceries, and I looked up and this other boy began to cry in that lane :(. The boy that killed himself was very nice, smart, clean cut and all. He was one of the nicest people I have ever met. After talking to him you would never have guessed anything was wrong because he was sounded so happy. This is the only person I have ever known to kill themselves, and one of the only friends I have ever had to die.

Suicide... no offense to you or your friend... but suicide seems to me the ultimate sign of weakness.
Sorry though,

That's what I've heard people saying, but you have no idea what was going on in his head. He was on anti depressants, but no one thought it was serious. As long as he is at peace now.

Isn't the pain he's feeling enough evidence of that?? does he really need another reminder?

sorry for your loss dude.

Sorry for your loss! :(

It's sad when someone feels there life is so bad that their only option is to commit suicide.

Just remember the good times. :)

I'm sorry :(. It's weird...I'm not usually involved in death but being on ATOT makes it seem way too close to me. Wow. Once again, I'm sorry.
