Over the course of the last 12 months 6 friends have died by suicide. The latest being yesterday. I'd known him since I was about 9 and he's left his wife (known her about the same time) and two little kids. Other losses are my ex-BIL (we were all still friends), my friend's fiance and three other friends.
It's not normal is it? Over my life I've had an average of two friends a year die by suicide or OD or alcohol related illness. Has anyone else experienced this? I am massively struggling and I suppose just want to know I'm not alone.
