This just happened today with my best friend. I don’t know what to do I love her so much and I feel like she died hating me for not being there as much as I could have. I miss her already

I feel like I wasn’t there for him. I had been depressed and withdrawn from everything and everyone. I let my feelings and life get in the way of seeing him as often as I truly wanted. Knowing he was sad and lonely, and knowing he wouldn’t ask for help if he needed it. I knew he needed my friendship. There were so many fucking signs. Im glad he’s at peace now, but I’ll miss him forever.

I was trying to talk my friend out of suicide, I used everything I could. As a last resort I said " what about all the people left who have to grieve you, who have to go in with the guilt of knowing that they could have done better or tried harder, that they might of been a part of the reason ur gone?" And said ' all of that is true, but I won't be here to see it will I?" When I tell you I was so sad yet so pissed man. But I get it.

“ he didn’t end the pain, he passed it” thats very true. When you kill yourself your not ending the pain your passing it. Stay alive

My best friend took his life too. We grew up together since kindergarten. The later bit of his life we drifted apart some. I allowed this to happen because I thought he was pushing me away. He wasn’t. I misread the signs and thought he wanted space when I now understand he wanted reassurance. I gave him space, eagerly awaiting his return. It didn’t come. I blame me.
