Well, just a little while ago, I received a phone call telling me that my friend Dawn committed suicide last night. She had just turned 24, so young. I am so pi$$ed. I honestly don't believe that she could have done that. she had been at another one of her friends houses and they had been drinking, etc. She spent the night there and this morning they said they found her dead. Supposedly she took too many pills (overdosed) and they found her lying next to a note. Why would you go to someone else's house to kill yourself. This doesn't make any sense, if you want to die your going to do it alone, not in a house full of people partying, you would be worried about someone finding you before you finished the job. Now I'm not insinuating that these people did anything to her but I think it was probably accidental and they covered it up. Honestly, suicide notes are something in the movies. She had lived alone so why wouldn't she have done it at home. Why the he!! would she do it at all? This doesn't make any sense to me. Thanks for listening to me vent. Do you think this is suspicious?

It does sound a little suspicious. Did you see the note? I wonder if someone did that could tell if it was her writing. Anyway I am sorry for your loss and you can vent here anytime.

No, I haven't got to see the note yet. That's what i'm anxious to see, because i'll know wether it's hers or not. The police still have it. Thanks

I am very sorry about your friend, I know it must be a dreadful shock. Often when people do this they actually want to be found and it is often a cry for help if they are depressed. This could be why she did it in a place with other people there. She maybe thought she would be found in time and just misjudged what she did. Like you say if she really wanted to do it she would have done it more privately. I think it is sad but that it was a cry for help that ended badly. I have known 2 guys who killed themselves and both was by hanging and one of my friends tried to take an overdose and panicked and rang the police who got there in time to save her. I was a close friend and had no idea she felt that way.

First of all, My sincerest Condolences. As your friend, you should come foward and discuss your thoughts. By the way you explain things, it doesn't seem right. Do the right thing. Talk to a detective.

I'm so sorry to hear that. Right now you are in shock, angry, sad, and trying to make sense of a senseless act. Right now I suggest remembering the good times you had with her, morn her, and wait to see what the police say about it. If you do not agree with them, then I would get involved and start asking questions. By then you should be able to think more clearly than right now, and might be able to supply the police with some answers to their questions. I think I would be watching the people at the party at the visitation to see how they are acting and what they say to you. Right now, just remeber, there was nothing you could have done so don't blame yourself, and try to remember the good in her.

I am more worried about her parents or someone who loved her. People who die, they end up their sufferings, but people who are left behind are also killed with this pain of seperation. Why she had to do this, perhaps she was too lonely. You see in mordern life, when children love to leave their parents and live their own life, you never know what will happen. There is no better place than loving shelter of parents. If today she was with her parents, she would't have taken this step. Yes it is a sad day. one of my co-worker came to office in the morning smiling at everyone. After half an hour she got a phone call that her hubby had met with an accident, by the time she reached hospital, he was gone. I am still shocked. This can happen to anybody, at anytime.......it is so sad.....lets try to be happy every moment instead of complaining, we never know what is waiting for us next moment.

I am deeply sorry for your loss. I am sure this must be an awful time for you and your friends family and friends. I think you need to let go of this theory. If there is anything sinister in it then the police will find this out. You need to concentrate on grieving and letting your friend go. Remember all the happy times. All the best.

You have my heart-felt sympathy for the loss of your friend. It does sound very suspicious and I'm sure that Police will investigate whether there is any foul play involved.

I think this is suspicious . Maybe your friend is under some kind of great pressures and couldn't endure it any more . In mordern society ,more and more people are facing the increasing pressures around them ,both from the inside and from the outside . Many of them contain themselves . Therefore , we should learn how to deal with them . Do not control your feeling and speak them out , no matter they are joys and sorrows . You can share them with your friends ,family members or any trust-worthy persons .They'll help you . :)

Oh no! That's too bad. It is only because of no true friends. Friends can't alow anybody to do that. Life becomes too sad if there not true friends. We should take care of our friends.
