My college roommate committed suicide last week
Advertisements [?]
I found out on Monday night. My senior year of college is when all of the gay stuff came to a head for me and I nearly ended my own life and he is one of the first people I told. He was great about it as were all my close friends. He had also had a crisis that year, that I helped him through. We joked about our room having been cursed given the problems I had and those he had. But now the jokes don't seem so funny since of the four of us in the suite, two are dead by their own hands. For him it was depression that wore him down. He just couldn't see his life ever being fun again. I feel so bad that I had no idea. I found him on facebook about a year ago and had no idea he was suffering so.

If you know someone with depression, I guess my message is to be sure they are OK.
