One of my closest friends committed suicide. I didn't get angry like some do when someone close chooses to end their life. I understood why he did it. He battled heavy depression his entire life. I just pray that he found peace. My prayers are with Ms. King and her family.

[@Cybersue22]

I wholeheartedly agree with you about the anger from other people, that's its selfish and cruel to those who hold you dear, but they do not know that mental trauma that one carries and all you want to do is make it stop. You feel worthless, a burden, an inconvenience and that you will never be happy again and those emotions are deep and are very difficult to get rid off. I have very nearly come to that place of darkness and despair myself and to be honest I battle it daily but I realise some days are good and some days are bad and in the bad ones I hopefully think that tomorrow might be better. I am still battling 35 years now. Regina's son is at peace and the hows and why's are his and his only. I wish people would think about this rather than be angry.

[@Mary-q5c9q]

[@kimee757]

This still touches m y heart. That's my line "I'm ok right now" Jimmy I understand & Regina is just magical. I loved how she touched Jimmy to console him. Grief NEVER leaves, we just learn to to manage it. Life forces you to move forward whether we want it to or not. There's a sadness in your heart everyday. My father was murdered when I was 11. I'm 54 now & EVERYDAY of my living, I've missed him. I miss my Mommy, my Daddy, my first friend (my cousin). I remind myself to feel what I feel when I'm feeling it. We have to sit in those emotions & it's ok to do so.

After therapy, when my wife and I built up enough emotional understanding and acceptance... We had full-out conversations and left everything open on the table with our close friends and relatives. We told them to ask ANY questions they wanted. We allowed the conversation to take on its own life. So many of them were scared to mourn with us for fear of making us feel worse. Room full of adults full out crying for the better part of 2 hours. It helped tremendously.

Beautiful of Jimmy to support Regina in this way. My heart goes out to her and her son. It sounds like he really tried. And she knows he tried. May be at peace now. However, depression therapy can and does help so many people, but in some cases not all.

It hits different when you’re a father or a mother, that’s why Jimmy chocked up. He, nor any parent, can fathom what that must be like but it must HURT LIKE HELL. Regina is pure class though, grabbing Jimmy’s hand to comfort him. God Bless them.

As a mother....my heart goes out to her. The pain never goes away . God be with her always.

Empathetic Jimmy.

My heart goes out to her. Losing a child is the worst thing ever. My nephew had horrible depression and died suddenly at 21, from a heart complication, not suicide. No parent should ever go through this. But I feel so terrible for her son as well, because of the hopelessness he felt. My deepest condolences to anyone that has ever experienced this tragedy. 😭

What a beautiful heart he has, to reach out to her to let her know how much he cared over her son’s loss…
