Just found out that my friend took her own life *possible triggers*

[AnotherStitchInTime]

She leaves behind three kids. So sad.

She was a victim of DV. Her mental health suffered. She was inpatient only days before, but they let her go home with regular supervision. Not regular enough

Sorry to hear that :(

Oh my goodness how awful

Those poor dc

I hope they (and you) have people surrounding you to help you through this

Two of her kids were already in foster care and one with his dad. At least they weren't at home with her when she did it. Feel sorry for the kids. Eldest will understand, but the toddler is too young.

Poor woman went through so much, but her abuser was due to be released and it tipped her over the edge

I'm so so sorry to hear this and I hope you're not suffering too much.

3 of my friends have taken their own lives in the past 7 years, it's heartbreaking.

I'm so sorry to hear that, its incredibly sad.

He cant hurt her now, may she rest in peace.

Thank you for your concern, I am OK, just shocked. I didn't know she was home I thought she was still receiving treatment.

So sorry op.

My SILs 10th anniversary was a while ago.

Still so painful for us but more importantly her closer family.

Sorry for those of you that have lost loved ones this way too. Wish I could have done more to help her, I tried.

You shouldn't feel guilty, Stitch.

As sad as it is she made her own choices.

I'll light a candle for you and her and her wee ones tonight. X

Thanks troopers

Oh jeez another that's so so sad. I'm sorry, lovely. Sorry for your loss, and for the three babies. Sending love and strength.

the ripples of suicide run wide , I am afraid.

It's really hard to help people in this situation, it's so very complex.

Please don't feel guilty.

you can't stop it. The determination of people to take their own lives is astounding.

There's absolutely nothing you could have done. I asked myself the same thing and no, it doesn't work. Those who want to take their own lives are very determined and will do it.

so very sorry
tragically, it is quite common for DV survivors

Thanks all, I have been holding my own three kids very close today thinking of her poor children.
