This article is helpful if someone is experiencing depression or other issues and is willing to talk about their challenges. Suicide takes many forms, but is often in the spur of the moment as a reaction to an overwhelming condition. An older relative took his life shortly after returning from the hospital because he didn't want to be a burden for whatever time he had left. Another was a loving mother, suffering from depression, who excused herself from a family gathering and was later found dead just a few rooms away. Still, another was someone who drove to a town where he was unknown, parked his vehicle in a remote area, and was not found until many days later. Another was a teenager who didn't have the means to cope when she and her parents didn't see eye-to-eye about something. I hope that through sincere friendships, expert professionals, and prevention therapy that many of these tragic situations can be avoided.
