... that there are two things I take away from this:

  1. there are a lot of people out there who you think are just fine and should be so happy but just aren't... not only Kate Spade, what about Robin Williams? Be aware others may be fragile and try not to hurt them.

  2. if you think you're worthless and a failure remember there are probably other people out there who admire you and wish they were like you. Don't kill yourself get help.

Good evening, everyone.

We have deleted a few posts, most of which were just replies.

We've also had a few comments about the name Kate Spade here, and can confirm that this poster has used this name for over 6 years so it isn't a recent change.

We know from experience that when well-known people take their lives, it impacts on a great number of our MNers in many different ways. We'd like to leave this thread as intact as possible, with all its compassionate thoughts and deeply sad stories, even with its anger and pain, and would hope that, as usual, MNers will come up trumps and support each other.

Flowers and kindest thoughts to those affected by friends and family who have taken their own lives, and for those still suffering we hope you don't mind, but when these issues are under discussion we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources - here. You can also go to the Samaritans' website here, or email them on [email protected].

Peace and love to all.
