Tragic. That explains why they couldn't tell right away if it was an OD or not.
The suicide note was probably a pretty good hint that it was intentional.

Was this like a random suicide pact or something? From what i gather the family did not know much about this girl he was seeing if anything actually.
In this day and age of meeting random people online, this is very very common

Blog post from one of her friends

We all knew the same amazing soul. She was a bright, warm, and sparkling being. We all remember her as that in our own ways. She touched every person she met. Aligned, shared eye contact, and looked at you in a way that let you know in an instant, that she is here for you and she is listening to you.
She’s been sending each of us old photos, making sure we read certain books, or asking us to carry out certain things without realizing what she was doing.

I absolutely hate when suicide is mythologized to that degree . In the end suicide is a very smallish and desperate action that destroys other lives. And while I agree that we should work to understand it and why it happens as well as have compassion for those who choose it, -we should also be able to agree that it’s not a heroic action worthy of flowery language. It’s a profoundly selfish act worthy of frank language and truthful commentary.
RIP to both young souls. And compassion extended to all friends and family.

If this were a friend of mine, I'd probably be slightly concerned.

Perhaps you aren't good at what you do.
Have you considered trying something else?

Lol
1/10 people stay sober, (if that)
With everyone doing heroin that isn’t heroin people die unfortunately. Part of the deal.
I got people I wish I could have done more for, then I got people that claim I played a critical part in their journey.
All I do is share my experience and let them know about a power greater than myself that helped save me.

And by clients, I mean people that have come thru the diff sober livings and treatment centers I’ve worked at.

Wow!
I had no idea that the successful rehab rate was that low.
Is that for heroin only, or does that include other addictive substances?

Are you shitting me?!? 9 of 10 relapse? How soon does it happen and what is considered relapse?
It's got to be a bitch working with people when you know that they have minimal hope of success.

Here is a message that a friend of Joy and mine sent me. He is a tattoo artist that did one of my tattoos last year, and Joy came with me. The tattoo took 10 minutes, yet we were there for 5 hours. Joy and Albert just vibrated. They had so many things to share with one another and speak of and it all just kept flowing. I felt mesmerized and special just to be present in that moment in time.
Guess the blogger will be getting more than a few more tattoos moving forward.
Also from her blog...the absolute state of American women

I will be taking a leave of absence from school to have more time to reflect on who I am and discover myself without the stress of turning in assignments on time and being surrounded by people in a more determined mindset than mine.
I have learned so very much from my mentors and peers and they inspire me every day, but I need to learn how to inspire myself. I need to let my head and my heart heal so I can continue growing healthily into who I truly am.
It has taken many months to get to this conclusion, and I want to say thank you to my friends, family, and teachers for standing by me as I have traveled all around on this rollercoaster. I reached my breaking point and you were all there to support me even if you didn’t know how. Thank you for showing me what unconditional love looks like.

Where do you see anyone making suicide a heroic action?
