re: Depression sucks. Had another high school friend commit suicide.

After driving 8 hours and watching my lifelong friend, his wife, their 4 other children looking at a lifeless 17 year in a casket you call it what you want. I just wanted my kids to know suicide isn't a option. If it strikes fear in them or I felt better after saying it then so be it. I have open lines of communication and always have so maybe it was selfish on my part but the hurt I saw that day I will never forget.
