Cam Saunders Suicide [Death and Dying Project]

[@annngggx]

"Say it's our fault. Say we failed him, you and me." "You should’ve done something!" :'( Damn. Powerful scene.

[@KindredKeepsake]

To think we used to want to rip Dallas' guts out. Freakin' hated him. I quit Degrassi sometime before this scene, and was shocked here. Some good acting right here.

[@annngggx]

7BlackSheep I know. I didn't like Dallas at first. I stopped watching after this scene... his death really hurt me. Everything was different and it just all changed.

[@KindredKeepsake]

I stopped watching way before this. XD After Adam died, it was like a kick to the balls. Adam was more than just a character, he was an inspiration. I lost all interest in this show, and resented it for such a poor plot choice. After some curiosity, I began to check out some Degrassi clips, which jogged my memory. I might try watching again.

[@HalifaxHercules]

Maya Matlin is also right in saying that students shouldn't blame themselves when their peers take a cowardly way out in ending their lives when facing one dark cloud after another, as opposed to being courageous, finding a way to solve their problems, turn their negatives into positives, survive, and live to be successful. At the end of the say, the students at Degrassi Community School didn't fail Cam Saunders, Cam Saunders failed himself.

This is simply about 𝘩𝘰𝘸 they reacted. This episode is literally about this conversation, so you can be mad or offended by it, or you can realize that and grow as a person.

[@carriewhitee]

@@cameronhall3148 imagine lacking so much empathy for others that you hate someone for not knowing the right way to react to the death of their first boyfriend at the age of FOURTEEN, and being hurt and angry at him for what he did. Anger is one of the stages of grief. If you paid even the slightest bit of attention to the episodes and knew even a little bit about grief and the stages of it, you would realize Maya was going through the stages of grief and shouldn't be hated or chastised for it. She started with denial (not believing Snake when she learned he had died, saying she just saw him last night and that he couldn't be dead), then anger (what she said at the vigil, how she reacted later saying she hated him for leaving her without even saying goodbye), depression (feeling like she can never be happy again after what he did) and later on, acceptance. She was grieving. She was hurt, angry, and confused. The show had her react that way not only to show the stages of grief but also to show that everyone grieves differently and in different orders of stages. Hating her for grieving is just horrendous, really. You need to do some extensive studying on the stages of grief because you clearly don't understand it at all.

[@reesevandyke]

It still baffles me to know that Maya literally had no idea this was coming. They went from having a perfectly normal and happy sleepover, waking up to him sending her a cute good morning message video and then later going to meet him outside of the school only to get a random breakup text and find out he died the next day. No one ever really gets over something like that

[@carriewhitee]

It all makes her reaction much more understandable. Anger and denial are already understandable and two stages of grief but the context of what happened directly before she lost him really makes it more understandable why she was in denial and got so angry at him for what he did.

[@phillyeaglesforlife5127]

There are 5 stages of grief 1) Denial, 2) Anger, 3) Barggening, 4) Depression, 5) Acceptance. There is no order in which way you go through these five steps and everybody's journey is different. You may not understand why someone grieves the way they do but judging them and making assumptions about how they feel isn't ok because everyone deals with it differently. Mia is a prime example of this, thought you may not have liked what she said or did it was just her coming to terms with the death of her boyfriend through her own grief journey.

[@maddiem2317]

A Few months ago , I lost one of my greatest friends to suicide. It was the hardest thing I have ever gone through. Waking up blaming myself. And going to sleep blaming myself. I should have seen it. I should have stopped it. I could have been a better friend, I could have made it so he absolutely knew that I was there for him. That he was loved. I was blaming myself and I was always sad. I had depression before it happened, but it got worse. I would notice that people got over it in a matter of minutes and I didn't understand why. How could they not blame themselves? How could they let it go? But then I realized, my friend was sick. I really really wish he could have gotton help, but it was too late. I had no idea what was going on inside his head and he thought suicide was the only way out. The grief has never stopped. If you ever feel suicidal. Please get help. I know that's a common thing to say but you don't know how important it is. The world would NOT be a better place without you. Stay strong.

It makes you so angry because you know that if you changed one thing or said one word, maybe they'd still be here. But he's not. He's dead and he didn't call me. He didn't tell me how sad or upset he was. He put all the weight on his shoulders when I would've taken some for him. He was so loved but he didn't see that and it makes you so mad. It's not fair. They take the pain that they had and they get to leave but you're left to deal with it. It sucks. This is the episode when I realized how much I had in common with Maya. Having the person you love more than anybody in the world kill themselves is the worst thing imaginable. I was angry too. I was so pissed at him too.

Both of my grandfather's committed suicide. My mom actually walked in and saw her father hanging in the kitchen when she was one 14 years old. The one thing she has always told me is that you can't help anybody who is truly suicidal. Yes, sometimes being there can make somebody think twice, but, it is nobody's fault for somebody committing suicide. If they have made up their mind, they will do it and that's why I liked Maya's speech. He made a choice, and no one should feel guilty or feel as though it was their fault or that they could have done anything to prevent it. That's why I especially didn't like how Dallas reacted to Ali.

Maya called him crazy, then zig basically reminded him that he was crazy by calling him a psycho, and that was his last straw. He was sick mentally so little things like that that normal people can just brush off, made him feel like he could never see happiness again. He felt like he was broken. THAT is why he did it.

When I was 18, my first boyfriend committed suicide. It was a very different situation; he was manipulative and abusive, having threatened suicide from day 1 of our relationship, he threatened to do so if I didn't allow him to get me pregnant. My son is 5 now, about to go into kindergarten. If I even attempted to ask or suggest him getting help, he'd scream at me, call me horrible names, told me if I called someone he'd just fake his way out of the hospital they'd put him in and then end his life the second he got out. I was scared and didn't know what to do, but my son changed me and gave me the courage to leave him, no matter what happened. Two hours later he shot himself in the head in my driveway. Anyways, Maya's behavior aka her anger, and her speech, really hit home, made me cry. I went through all the phases, and there was numbness, anger, indifference, periods of absolutely uncontrollable sobbing, blaming others and screaming at them, blaming myself, etc. I feel like I've said things almost word for word that Maya said in that speech.

As someone who used to be extremely depressed and suicidal engaging in self harm, feeling lonely choosing to be lonely because I get misunderstood or that everything was my fault. Practically being tormented, I can admit that (and let me be clear many will disagree because they refuse to see the situation outside of themselves) sometimes people who are going through such darkness tend to be toxic and selfish. And because the people around them care they make them feel like a victim which only fuels the torment even more when truthfully I can honestly say I had to stop pitying myself at some point because it took one moment to have my little sister see me attempt to hurt myself to think about what my actions will do to others. It was a long and hard fight I was finally set free, all thanks to Jesus Christ (I really wanted to be set free and He helped me) but now years later with an open mind I think back on how even though I love my friends and family so much most of my actions even though at the time I didn’t think so were toxic and very selfish. I would pick at a friend which I thought were just jokes forgetting that I was bullied. I defended her against anybody else but who was around to check me when I went to far, now we no longer speak. And I didn’t think it was a big deal until you think back I thought it was just me having fun on a good day when really I was taking out my insecurities my anxiety my depression my self hatred out on her and my other loved ones. Depression/suicide is simply the mind being torment and it comes by most of the time, trauma. It’s literally a demon. The devil hates us because we can be redeemed so he will try to influence someone to self destruct and even destroy those around them. So where it’s not an excuse to ever mistreat those around you or to choose to kill yourself (because let’s face it life is hard you make mistake but choosing death prohibits any chance of changing and seeing what hope may bring), I just want to point out another perspective for those either effected by a loved one dealing with depression or have dealt with it, that maya’s feelings were completely understandable. You were right to move on, you at least still loved them (as we should love those even that try to hurt us) and while you were patient it is fine to do what you have to to take care of you and yours. Just if someone is toxic but battling the spirit of depression please talk with them even if at a distance and pray for them. Let them know God loves them and there is joy waiting beyond those circumstances they can’t see past or refuse to let go of. So I do feel bad for what you went through. I am glad you and your son are doing great and I hope y’all continue to do well in life. ❤️

This mirrors Claude’s death in so many ways.

Yeah but he didn't know,he was very hurt at that moment, he didnt wanna hurt her,trust me He was dealing with a loss

[@JulianRodriguez-sn6nr]

I disagree wholeheartedly with this notion that because someone commits suicide that he or she ," is a coward". People don't seem to understand what a suicidal person is thinking or what he or she may be feeling, that doesn't make them a coward that means they're sick & in need of help. Look suicide is a complex thing but it's no one's fault when it does happen it's something that I believe needs to be looked into way more than what's been given out as far as information about it. At the end of the day mental health is incredibly important so remember to always check in on family, friends, or loved ones you never know how they're feeling each day 🙏.

[@notwerkinginthishouse8634]

Thank you for being empathetic

Dylan Everett a.k.a. Cam was one of my favourite characters on the show and another show I’m sure us Canadians well remember called Wingin’ it.

[@Tatie1996]

When Dallas was yelling at Alli, I knew he wasn't really talking to her. He was really talking to himself because of the pain and regret for treating Cam the way he did.

It’s sad how after Cam died Maya lost herself because she really loved him and cared for him she was hurting and she was in pain from losing someone she loved

[@quinlanteague1093]

I have anxiety and one time I was just so upset. I sat on the couch and was holding it in watching something funny like on Cartoon Network and my family wanted to leave and I said I would stay home cause they were just going for McDonald's which I don't like that much. They left and I just let it all out and cried until the walls shook and then I stopped. I felt terrible and wanted to die. I wen too the bathroom and removed my makeup and washed my face then I put new makeup on. Wen they got home I was fine. Sad but fine.

[@Jessthirsty]

As someone who struggled with depression my whole life, fought post-partum psychosis and still coming back from post-partum depression.. Maya is right to be angry. He should have fought harder. Honestly the only thing that kept me from doing it was knowing that if I did, my kids would never forgive me for it. I couldn’t die with that.

[@Xemper19]

The "he should have fought harder" really makes me question your comment.

[@Bittyboo14]

You have your kids to live for. That's completely different

[@korowong22]

Bitch wtf is wrong with you, I dont believe you ever had post partum because how tf you say that someone with depression shouldve fought harder to stay alive when the reason your dumbass is still alive is cause of someone else. Bitch you aint fight harder either, you just wouldve felt guilty for leaving them here talking about "my kids would never forgive me, I couldnt die with that" that sounds selfish asf, all I heard was me me me, how about staying here cause you brought them into this world when they didnt ask to be here, the same world you wanted to leave at one point

[@theskyisblue4882]

We’re talking about a kid here ease down.

[@Robcopwk]

Maya was the only one he had and when Zig said to him to stay out of her life, that hit hard. He was depressed. He can’t just “try harder”

yes i do know my aunt committed suicide because i guess she hated life she wrote a letter but i guess they didnt want us to see so yeah it does hurt to lose someone over thoughts of suicide but it do gets better in my opinion but if your listning pray for us please and thank if you are listening to me thanks again.

[@kaylawilkins9981]

I would be angry too. It’s easy for people (in the comment section) to say that it’s other people’s fault for saying they don’t understand how a victim felt or didn’t want to be apart of it when you haven’t been put in that situation. I’ve been put in that situation and made that mistake. I almost like someone down but went back to them and tried to help. It’s a matter of trying to help but damn y’all act like y’all never messed up. People struggle daily. We all have suffered or will suffer from severe depression at least once in our lives. It will be short or for a long period of time. Some people feel as if it’s too much but that’s not our fault. They needed help and they couldn’t get it because their MIND was to blame. Not them. Not us. Their mind.

[@andreaellis1061]

What seasons are these tho cuz i be watchin degrassi so outta order

[@thejuiceisloose1566]

Why was Campbell taken out of the season 12 credits after he died but JT wasn’t taken out of the season 6 credits?

[@notwerkinginthishouse8634]

I think those reactions happened in an episode after he did it,not sure Maybe thats why

[@savylynn1898]

I was 13 when I first saw this episode and it messed me up bruh

[@MsFluffyninja7]

I just saw Maya try to commit suicide in the newer seasons It's almost weird seeing going back and seeing her views on suicide back then knowing she tried to do it in the newer seasons

[@jayliaharris6621]

I don’t think she really though that it was selfish though, I thinks she was just angry and in denial. A lot of times when someone is grieving, they get angry at the person who died even though it was not their fault.

[@alyxthespideykid]

I wonder how maya felt when she was extremely depressed. I wonder is she thought about cam when she took those pills and tried to kill herself.

And that ,ladies and gentlemen is when Maya got messed up.
