Discussion Has anyone here lost someone to suicide?

[Mundi]

My mom committed suicide when I was 16. She had threatened/attempted most of my life, including by rolling 3 cars in suicide attempts and spending 4 months in a psych hospital. She was also very abusive to me and my younger siblings, so at the end, I wanted her to do it. As for how it affects me now: in suicidal moments, I believe that it would be better for most people if I got it over with, rather than dragging them through my episodes over many years like my mom did.

We have all lost someone here to suicide. The forum it littered with those who have passed.

One of my close friends nearly a year ago, she was just 19. I'm devastated but also proud she had the courage to do so and not have to endure anymore suffering. I'm 27 and I was the same at 19, if I'd of known I had another 8 years of the same shit I would of done it at her age too rather than suffering for so many more years. I miss her greatly, it won't be long til we're back together now.
