I once went to a shrink. Shit never worked for me. But hey I guess everyone is different. I'm glad it helped you.
To those that are calling him a "coward" for taking his own life, unless you have been molested since being 3 years old or ever for that matter you have no right to do so. People that are molested tend to view life in a diffrent way, just like woman that are raped. Are you going to say that a woman that is raped should just go get help and get over it? The Kid was pretty clear in that he has been dealing with this nightmare for the past 20 years. Thats more then most members of this site have even lived. Much worst from what I read, I'm pretty sure it was his dad that did it and his famaly knew it but no one did anything about it because he was saved. How the fuck do you get over that the people that are supposed to protect you are the main people telling you to save yourself in the eyes of the lord and get over it? What kind of logic is that? I understand that people have their own views on one taking their own life, but to sit here and point fingers and call the kid a coward is even more cowardly as I'm sure none of the people talking have ever dealt with anything remotely close to the 20 year nightmare he has dealt with. It's like people that have never had a gun pointed at them before claiming that if it ever happened they would just snatch it away. Given the chance of that happening, those same people would shit their pants.
Sure he could have gone to get help but he was pretty clear to explain that he had major trust issues. Which is expected since everyone he had ever trusted had failed him. He also went on to say that he was afraid that he would end up killing someone. Maybe he started to see evil in himself, much like people that have been molested become killers and go on massive murder rampages. I'm not okay with suicide, but im also no one to judge this guy since I have never been through anything near his 20 year nightmare, nor has anyone in my life. This was truely a tragic story and I can only hope that the guy is in a better place. R.I.P
Who called him a coward? Using the word coward and calling him a coward aret two very different things
Most believe there is honor in suicide. It's America society that fucked up the meaning of suicide because of dumb ppl who lost a gf or quit playing wow etc etc. Travel around and you really get out of the box we all are living in no matter who you are. It's been around since the days of ninjas and samurai. They fucked up and instead of bringing shame to their family they stab themselves in the gut....that's a slow death to keep their honor.

From what I can piece together, it seems he went online early Sunday morning, checked MeFi until about 4am EST, went to facebook an hour later and wiped out his entire profile, just leaving his suicide note (warning, it's intense and describes abuse but it is really well written). He then emailed a copy of the note to a large number of friends and acquaintances at 6:57am EST (that's when I got it and first found out what happened), then he began to hang himself.
From what I can gather, ten minutes later someone found him and he was rushed to the hospital but ten minutes is a long time to go without oxygen to the brain. He suffered damage and his brain was showing very little involuntary activity and no voluntary activity. He was induced into a coma to prevent swelling but eventually it was declared he'd be in a permanent vegetative state and tonight at 8pm his respirator was removed and he passed on.
Thats why I <3 u Mike, I want your Tomei Mani MEOW!!!!!
