I had a coworker who lost her daughter to suicide, and it basically killed my coworker. She went from being a very energetic, talkative, outgoing, friendly person to a dead husk that just punched in and punched out until she was able to retire. She left the country, got a cottage and a plot of land in a cheap ass former Soviet country, and now just lives as a hermit. I don't think you should live your life out of obligations to others or because you don't want to hurt them, but know for a fact it will absolutely devastate them. You should live life for yourself. You owe it to yourself to see how it plays out. Personally, I tried to kill myself when I was in my two decades ago, and right now I'm in a place in my life where I'm glad that I didn't kill myself. Even when things are stressful in my life and things look grim, I'm glad to see them all the way through. >> Anonymous 12/32/20(Fri)23:36:19 No.120039427▶>>120039515 >>120038724 >She left the country, got a cottage and a plot of land in a cheap ass former Soviet country, and now just lives as a hermit I honestly wish I could do this now. I just don't have the balls or money. >> Anonymous 12/32/20(Fri)23:47:40 No.120039515▶ >>120039427 It's just kind of sad to me because she was the sort of person who was friendly to the point of it annoying some people, like the kind of person who would talk your ear off. Never annoyed me, though. She definitely knew a lot about a wide variety of topics. I remember one day she just started talking about Discworld basically out of nowhere and I'm like "you've read the Discworld series" and turns out she was a huge fan of Terry Pratchett. I'd know her for a decade at that point and it was the first I'd even heard about this, and this woman told me what I had assumed was basically everything about her. To think of her going from that kind of person to a recluse, shut off from the world, over her daughter's death is just sad to me. In the sense that matters the most, she died the day her daughter died. The light was extinguished from her those last years I worked with her and knew her. Not really a pleasant thing to think about but that's life sometimes.
