If friends of pseudoname would like to babble-mail me, I can tell you more about how he was feeling recently, and share some of his thoughts. It might be hard to read, but it's helping me remember him and grieve.
Some people mentioned that they felt guilty that they hadn't been in touch with him recently. I wanted to say that pseudo wrote me that he often didn't have computer access in the last month or two.
Of course, I will wonder sometimes whether I *could* have done more to help him. Maybe other people feel that way too? I hope you can find some comfort, as I did, that pseudo was working with doctors and had support IRL, which is what I would have wanted for him. He was a real fighter, and tried so hard for so long to conquer his depression. It's a beautiful thing that he was able to help others along the way.
