On Wednesday night, one of my dear friends committed suicide. Since then, my life has been spiraling downward. I feel there’s really no way back up. She brought so much joy to everyone around her. I can’t help but blame myself for not noticing. I miss you ry

She sounds very dear to you, but I want you to know that she wouldn't have wanted you to blame yourself. She would have wanted you to be happy, which I understand is difficult in a time like this, but stay resilient and strong. Stay strong for her then.

I'm going through the same thing, please help. I need to talk with someone who understands how hard it is.

I completely understand. When I go to school I have a hard time concentrating on my work my mind starts to drift back to my family member who committed suicide 2 months almost 3 months. the same thing happened to me I saw that family member the week before he did anything and I should have noticed but I didn't. The last picture I have of him was of him not smiling and he always smiled even in the worst situations. I now when I think of him I think back to him smiling even if something like this happened.

I miss you Keyleb

If you need to talk I am here. Any advice would be great to help me with unwanted thoughts. My life right now feels like a roller coaster stuck at the bottom of the track and there is no way to the top.

believe me i also and still do blame myself but now I realize that is isn't going to help so what I am going to ask from is that you take one day at a time and anytime you start to think it was your fault tell yourself it wasn't and that sometimes you just don't know until it is too late.
