May your friend find peace in her rest.
Thank you, @luvabi! I really hope so too.
I lost my best friend when I was 25, after 27 years I still wonder what happened...
Hey @unclemike, I'm so sorry to hear that. I know it's been so long, but still, my condolences to your friend. May your best friend find peace amidst the pain he went through.
Define heartbreaking?! 😭💔
My heart still breaks everyday @erangvee. 💔😭
That's so sad.
Depression should be taken seriously.
Yes, @inahc! It is regretful that we never noticed her depressive tendencies in the past, but after this incident, I took it as a concrete goal to be more aware of Depression and other mental disorders, so that I could help prevent the same scenario again.
This is so beautifully-written. It has been 3 years since you have written this but the pain still feels so real. Thank you for being a friend to Jameng. And to Jameng, wherever you are, I do not know you but know that you have touched my life in the realest way possible.
Thank you so much, @charlocked!! I kept crying when I was writing that before.
It's nice to know that even though Jameng is gone, she's still able to touch the lives of people in this world.
This is so painful. Depression really sucks and most of the people that surround a depressed person can't detect it or don't know how to handle a depressed person. I hope everyone must learn how to deal with depression to help ourselves and others too...
A simple "hi" or a tap on a shoulder can somehow ease one's pain.
Yes, you're right. Maybe we can do little things to ease other people's pain. I also hope that Depression, as well as other mental disorders, will not be stigmatized in the society anymore. Thanks, @marionsden!
Welcome, @mind-candy. Yup, I do hope the society can have a paradigm shift in mental disorders. Let's fight depression by being there for our depressed friends. . . in our little ways, we can. I really appreciate your post, a sad story but also a wake-up call to all of us to be aware of depression.
Keep smiling, you might not know it but there are many people out there who love seeing your smile.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I remembered our bubbly neighbor who’s also very young and committed suicide. And like your friend, she’s very bubbly and always makes us laugh. This reminds and serves a lesson to everyone that not all bubbly people are happy. and we should be sensitive with our words and actions. May she rest in peace.
Thanks for dropping by, @appleskie! That's really sad, too. Condolences to your neighbor po and may she rest in peace. 😭😭 Yes, it becomes an eye-opener for all of us, to become more aware of the silent battles that our loved ones and friends are experiencing, and to be able to help them, before it's too late. 😭
Very true @mind-candy. We should be aware also of our peer's actions or posts. Depression is a very tough battle. I had depression before and it was purely self-destruction.
Hey @appleskie I am glad that you have recovered from Depression. It really is a tough challenge, isn't it? I, too, have Anxiety. But I try my best to not let my thoughts become so overwhelming.
I lost my two cousins to suicide too, both are boys. One age 15 the other age 22 or 23 can't really remember. Its just sad how we can't see the sadness behind their smiles and jokes, maybe if we noticed, just maybe we could have prevented it.
@sheenaabelgas I'm so sorry to hear that, may your relatives rest in peace. Yes, it's truly hard to detect mentall illnesses behind joyful facades, all we can do is hope that next time, we'll be able to do what we can to help those who are suffering.
The most heart-breaking story. I pray everyone gets healed one day. God bless to you and your family.
Thank you, @shairanada! I also pray for everyone who had experienced the same tragedy, and hope it will never happen again to anyone. God bless you too!

So sad. My condolences. I also had the same experience when a close friend committed suicide when we were in college. I still have dreams of this friend sometimes. Probably I miss my friend's company.
Thank you, @mykill. My condolences too, to your friend who had passed away. We both will never forget our close friends and we'll always miss them, though they're gone.
heartbreaking and made me tear up :( you write well mama D. praying for your friend
