Like Many of you one of my friends hung himself 3yrs ago in august.I had'nt seen him for a while and when i heard i could'nt believe it as he never came across as a person who would do that he always seemed so strong and full of life. But thats how depression can effect some people. I disagree that taking your own life is the easy way out because i think it takes a great deal of guts to do it. I know how bad the devastation effects family and friends when someone takes thier own life but if your in a desprate state where you think theres no way out then who knows what goes through thier minds. My friend B is in my thoughts every day.
