I hope that this doesn't come off as disrespectful. I just wanted to share this unidentified person's suicide note I came across because I felt like I could strongly relate to a lot of what he was feeling. I hope he is at peace now.


The note:
"Mom and Dad, You have provided be excellent advantages and privileges and experiences. I am extremely grateful for all of your sacrifices, time and support. I am now repaying you with an arrogant act. In this light, I do see it as criminal. I can only hope that you see that it was me who caused it. I never did develop into a real person and I cannot tolerate the false and empty existence I have created. It is best if I cease to live, quietly, than risk that later I will break and shatter by violence or linger years under care. I implore you to see a psychiatrist in order that you might understand my death and my life. Ask thoroughly about what I was and you will see that it is not tragic that I am gone but more natural than if I continued. I was born with a definite pervasive melancholy. What frustrated me most in the last year was that I had built no ties to family or friends. There was nothing of lasting worth and value. I led a detached existence and I was a parody of a person-literally and figuratively. I didn't tell jokes-I was a joke. I am a bomb of frustration and should never marry or have children. It is safest to defuse the bomb harmlessly now. I do not want to bother with being a "reformed and cured" person limping through life. I am this self-centered. I am no longer interested in the world and know that it is not interested in me. When you stop growing you are dead. I stopped growing long ago."

Huh, interesting, thanks for sharing. What an articulate note, he really had a knack for expressing himself. May his soul rest well.

"It's safest to defuse the bomb harmlessly now" -- I can relate to this feeling a lot.

"When you stop growing you are dead" - made me think about how we are all looking forward for the next stage in our lives. Moving, learning, growing.
Thank you for sharing this.

He really had a way with words. I hope his soul is at rest and his family found peace.
