I've been there, a friend I grew up w/ blew his brains out in front of his wife. I've also been battling my own depression for 8 years. Lately, things haven't been too good and I found myself considering it again. It's easy to want to sleep forever, but the thought of what my family would go through stops me everytime. I am sorry for your loss.

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.
