youre such a douche bag duffy annoy:

sorry to hear bout your friend, Arkan. maybe he had alot on his mind, some kind of pressure. dont beat yourself up over it, i know you care about his family and all, but dont think about there could have been something you could have done. ive been through some rough shit, but ive never been faced with anything that would make me really think about taking my own life, it must have been too rough for him to confide to anyone. in the meantime, just be there for his family, cause they are prolly hurting way more than you and your bro. i dont think anyone can really find out the real answers as to why someone who seemed to have everything going for him would do something like that. just take it day by day and see what happens. take care, man. sorry for your lost. i cant imagine what you and his family are feeling right now. good luck with this.

RIP, mang. Its a sad thing.

Is it for sure an intentional suicide, as opposed to an accident? Did he leave a letter?

And Duffy, die in a ditch. You should be banned for that kind of shit annoy:

Really sorry to hear about that mate.

My friends brother committed suicide earlier this year. His reason was that he was gay, he was going to tell his best friends the next day after telling his parents the week before.

His dad found him after hanging himself. The worst part is trying to imagine him as a father pulling your son down from a rope. Very sickening.

You'll also find most people that threaten suicide, wont do it. I think its something like 90% of all suicidesdidnt threaten to do it.

maybe he felt something was very wrong in his life, no matter what great things there were, something was wrong or missing and perhaps he felt he couldn't deal with it or wasn't stronge enough to.

or maybe he was depressed. lots of people who have depression know just how to mask their condition to others. if he was sick emotionally and/or mentally, and everyone around him thought he was happy and normal, he obviously never recieved help. which is bad of course cuz the condition builds up over time and gets worse.

My sympathies to you and his family. Unfortunately, sometimes the guys who have it all together and seem to have everything to live for, feel the most pressure to keep things going perfectly. I think this is especially true of guys with children. Sometimes what might seem nothing more than a blip in the radar to most, can seem like a failure to someone who is a perfectionist. Maybe he made a bad investment or his job was in jeopardy. Who knows? Anyway, its unfortunate that he didn't reach out for help. Sounds like he had a ready-made support system. Perhaps he had too much pride. Anyway, its just a tragedy for all involved. Hope everyone pulls through this as well as could be expected.

deep childhood traumas do tend to come out in the peak of life, and usually around the worst time of year. mainlybecuase it is seen as a good time but something happends that makes it so unbareable they feel they cant take it. Ive never had anyone close commit suicide, but i do know ppl who have, saw one when i was in paris a couple of years ago and have lost friends and many relatives to death, mostly cancers and vehicle acidents. however as much of a douche that duffy is, maybe there was foul play but RIP to your friend and the best wishes to his family and friends

Well, to answer a question or two, it wasn't a homicide. My buddy killed himself in front of his wife and of course the police treated it as a homicide as they should but it's been ruled a suicide. Autopsy ruled out drugs/alcohol so this was just a plain old suicide.

Whats suprising to all is why. No one really knows, including his own wife. I guess we'll never know for certain. All that is known is he left the house early that morning and when he returned, he hugged each of his children, told them daddy loves you very much and don't ever forget that, then did the deed away from them.

I'll be going to the wake tomorrow. Just sucks knowing his family will suffer from this.

Oh, and Duffy, can you stoop any lower? I'd probably entertain the idea that you're trying to be funny but i came to the conclusion that you're just a kid who's mildly retarded. I feel sorry for your parents.


The world is my urinal

Ask TonyDungee's son ... that was so sad ... he lived by USF, the school I'm attending. I met the guy several times during press meetings ... said a quick few words, he was nice and everything.
