This one touches on depression, something I understand very well. Everything could be going smoothly and then it all bottle necks or locks up and crushes you. I have lost two friends to depression, one in high school and one later in the years. Both were great guys one was a jock the other an intellect with a wonderful family. Depression is not biased and it can hit at any time
I met someone at a party one time, a friend of my brothers, it was a brief meeting, and he seemed like a really good guy, friendly and outgoing. A week later my brother told me the next day that fellow had taken his life.
Please, if you are suffering with depression, whether it be finances, relationship, or clinical. I ask you to seek help and speak with someone who can guide you through. In those moments you don’t realize how many people you have touched and how many people love you. You can speak to a friend or family member, or you can call this number and speak with someone who will listen and help you find the right help you may need.
