Oh my God, I up voted Laura 8 days ago. The post about sugar, now it feels so surreal. That someone you read their posts before, is longer here. Rest in peace Laura, thank you for your bright insight and time.

In my own experience, a friend of mine committed suicide two months ago. He finally got tired of his drug use and it didn't help, his mom committed suicide 5 years before him. His little brother found both his mom and him dead, they both committed suicide by medicine. His Mom was found in her bed, he was found sitting in a chair with his head on the table.

At first when I heard the news, I thought it was a joke. I did not believe it, or refused too. Then later after more investigation and people not giving up on the topic, it became fact. Online you can also find ambulance reports, when they get sent out and to what address. His address was on the list. At first I was at disbelief, then shock, then sadness and grief. Today, I still think about it and memories about how we laughed and what we did still come to me. Depression is a horrible disease, which should not be underrated. There are plenty people I know who suffer from it, who lost a loved one from it. It's the final solution to end the suffering, but not for the ones who you leave behind. You will leave them with a hole in their hearts and soul.
