The boyfriend of a best friend of my daughter's did that very thing in high school. The best friend was devastate as were the rest of their classmates. Although he did carry around other issues like depression. When he did this was right after the best friend broke up with the boyfriend, within a few days. She blamed herself for a long time but eventually came to terms with it.

Hi Alffe~
Thank you for sharing that excerpt, which spoke to me in a big way! It is so true, the formula mentioned, and how one thing leads to another, to another, until it is so out of proportion nothing makes any sense. I'm guilty of giving in to this kind of "stinkin' thinkin'"...many times over. You'd think I would get it! It's been a long time since I felt this angry, to the point of wanting to disappear, as a means of escape from the emotional pain. I'm stronger than that. Sometimes I faulter, and don't process this sort of anger very well. Doody, I can relate to your post very well!! In my teen years, I had a boyfriend break up with me, and I thought I couldn't live without him! I tried to make him feel bad by attempting suicide. Stupid, stupid me...he didn't care, and left me to learn to deal with my abnormal emotional behaviors. One of the best things that could have happened. Thanks again for posting such a thought provoking message! ~Kimmy

(((Alffe))) Hopefully my post about the Ad Council will come to fruition soon. It's my understanding that the first in the series about stigmas associated with mental health problems will be addressing the issue of suicide in young people.

The novel I'm reading at the moment had exactly the same thing in it. The boyfriend took his own life outside his ex's house because he was so angry at her for ending the relationship.
To be honest, I'd never thought of anger being a prelude to suicide before. I'd always thought that despair was at it's roots. Thank you Alffe for making us think.

We'll want lots of pictures of that grandaughter of yours Addy.
