[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m horrified by the impulsive nature of his suicide. I had assumed that he had been troubled for a long time, but to find out that he did it (and was making other bad choices) due to a woman who was cheating on him was just a gut punch.[/quote]

He WAS troubled for a long time. He was drug addict at a very young age.

Suicides can seem impulsive, in that they have triggers (a break up or firing, for example), but people who are healthy and strong when they encounter life's disappointments do not generally chose that option.[/quote]

"Suicide." I'm still not convinced.

He said just a few days before he died that he "had things to live for." He also hung himself with a bathrobe belt, which would likely not support a 200 pound man's full weight which means he probably tied it to a doorknob and sat down. Dude's best friend found him first, my personal theory is that is was a choke and stroke gone awry and his friend did him a final solid and zipped him up so it would look like suicide.   [/quote]

He spoke about suicide and killing himself  by hanging often. Then his girlfriend was cheating on him so he went through with it. No surprises there.[/quote]
