It's a permanent solution to a temporary problem. I lost my good friends, and people close to you won't always understand, but I know at 21 I have a whole lot of life left and a whole lot of time to recover making a new life along the way. Three years seems like a long time, but in the whole time frame of life it is so minimal.
Thanks for the kind words, engineer. My heart goes out to you and everyone else who has been here too. Sadly, I have had that same experience while driving. I won't let myself act on these thoughts, but to be having them is still nonetheless troubling.

Fortunately, I've calmed down from earlier today - just being able to post here and vent in itself was helpful, which I gather is the purpose of these forums. Hope everything is going ok by you.
