I've just been through a friend's
attempted suicide episode, and i
did not post it because nobody knowing
the person, it would just be
a trigger for those already on the edge.
I thought it would be very unthoughtful
and even harmful and would not do any good.I don't think that something this personal
should be posted, unless the person is known;
if it's somebody's friend, then perhaps the
e-mail can be sent confidentially. Or if
you wish to post the obituary from a newspaper
perhaps that would add a more personal touch
and reality. Start a file - OBITUARIES (maybe
with something about the person's life if the family agrees).Squiggles
