My condolencesProbably when my dad died two years ago.
I really can't remember. Probably in 2001 when I was sent to the middle east for work right after 9/11 and my best friend decided to hang themselves in their closet. She was always really depressed and I was there for her most of times she needed someone to talk to. I came back to the US and was told by one of my other friends that the note she left stated that since I went away, she didn't have anybody else or something to that extent, I blamed myself heavily for what she did... but since then, I've accepted that it wasn't my fault. It was definitely one of the low points in my life... but I live and learn and move on, which is more than I can say for what she did.

That was really unfair what she did to you. People like that are naturally self-destructive. If you had stayed in America, she would have eventually found another reason to kill herself.
I've had a number of friends kill themselves. First one, and the one that affected me the most, was when I was only 17. My friend was 15 and killed himself over something as stupid as his girlfriend breaking up with him, but I suspect his problems ran a lot deeper and that was just the excuse. I cried a lot over that and still think about it now. The 13th anniversary of his death was a few days ago.
Where in the Middle East did you go?
About 20 months ago when my dog was hit and killed by a car a full three days after my engagement with my ex-fiancée collapsed. It was the worst week of my life and put me in a depression for about six months.
