I read that note earlier today -- it's so sad.

It's infuriating that some jackass caused this guy so many years of pain (resultant of physical and emotional abuse when he was a very young child) for his own temporary sick pleasures. Not only that, but he has taken away so many years that he could have lived happily past the age of 23.

Sad that he had to decide to go with suicide, being abused in your childhood and depressed all your life can get tiring and can lead to bad events in the future. :<

R.I.P.

I kind of feel like this time of year with winter, Christmas, and New Years all together make people start to think about their lives, and if they aren't happy with it more likely do something like this unfortunately =[.

I am sorry that anyone ever has to feel this way

Sad to see people do this to themselves. It's also bad that people have to go through abuse as well. R.I.P.

Not that I actually care that he's dead, as I have no idea who he is, taking a look into a life that sad really makes me feel differently about the sexual abuse of children and suicide. I've always kinda been on the fence weather I agreed with suicide being selfish. This article really shows how terrible life can be. I always knew children being abused was bad, but I didn't know it could fuck somebody up to this extent, I have a close friend who went through something similar to this.

I already said this in the suicide thread, but imo it's both selfish to commit suicide, but just as selfish to expect someone to live under suffering.

There *are* problems with our counseling/medical systems. Patient/doctor confidentiality is truly thin. If there is a justifiable "duty to warn/protect" over things like suicidal/homicidial/abusive behavior, that confidentiality is toast whether you like it or not and suddenly a bunch of people will try to butt control into your life. This did not happen to me personally, but rather an acquaintance who went to uni counseling services (after working up the courage to get help) because she was an anorexic cutter. They ended up contacting parents, teachers, etc -- it completely sideblinded her. Had she been any more unstable, she would have probably taken her own life. I'm not even sure, to this day, if she's recovered properly.

So it can be quite hard for someone with trust issues to trust doctors when there's a good chance that trust will be nuked -- leaving decisions up to people who start to tread on areas you've carefully tried to keep under control.

It's too bad we don't have drugs that erase select memories. Or if they do exist, they aren't widely known about or easily accessible or well-tested.

Try the movie eternal sunshine of the spotless mind. Crazy concept and very well done. Also, this is really sad, especially considering the hit to our own community not too long ago.
