oh man, I feel your loss. Suicide is so confusing and can real mess a family up. DOn't let the family get into a blame game. Slow down, grieve, and grow strong from your enormous loss and don't let hate and dispair become your crutch for your emptiness. Depression and/or any mental illness is hard to understand from our perspective. It's NOBODY'S fault! Good luck and our prayers are with you and your family.

Im so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and yours as well. I had a cousin that shot himself when i was 9 and our family has never been the same afterward. His family is so secluded(sp?) now from us and its my dads older brothers family. It hit the family so hard. He was only 14 and i miss the hell out of him. He was like the older brother i never had. I really know what you are going through about the shock and all. It took me about 3 days for it to get to me. Like i said, my thoughts and prayers are with yall. And if anybody needs something, give me a holler.

I can understand what you are going through as well as what he was going through. I have been on both sides of the fence and would not wish it upon anyone. Threads like this should make us take a second and think twice about our own lives and how greatful we all should be.





Sorry to hear about your brother. My prayers go out to your family.
