Ditto... I have lost a few friends or family members of close friends to suicide and have seen the effect on those left behind. I have also responded to several suicides as a firefighter and seen the aftermath. The last one I responded to, a guy put a 12ga shotgun under his jaw and blew the front of his face off. He had no mouth left, no nose, and it shredded his eyes but he survived. There was not enough bleeding to bleed our and it angled forward enough so that nothing entered the brain. That visual will forever be seared into my mind. I would be lying if I said I have never been in a low spot where the temptation has been there but no matter how impossible things seem they will get better if you seek help.
