88. I am so sorry for your loss... I have had several very, very close friends that committed suicide...

Tue Apr 18, 2017, 10:14 PM

Apr 2017

...I am so sorry you were the one who had to find her... that said, be angry, but realize, this wasn't about you. This was about her and how she felt she could not go on. And try to understand that she may have been dealing with depression and negative feelings that you really can't imagine at this time.

And now to you... please consider talking with someone, please consider seeing a Therapist, you are going to need to reach out to someone and talk with someone who can help you. And wonderful and supporting DU may be, you're probably going to need something more to help process this loss.

Bless your heart.
