Re: serious post: My really good friends brother just commited suicide
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I have no clue what to say. This is so [censored] up, she found out this morning and I just found out about it a few hours ago. He was 25, her oldest brother. I really don't know what to do or what to say to her. Any advice is appreciated. thanks. [/ QUOTE ] The truth about the situation is that you know there were big problems in that person's life, of which a 95% chance that it had to do with their family, and thus the girl you are talking about has some issues (most likely unexplored issues), and now you are affraid to ask the questions that need to be asked. If you want to help someone, you *have* to open up the discussion about the core of the matter. [/ QUOTE ] no. unless op is a psychologist he should not be the one asking these questions. trying to open up discussion about why he killed himself when she is still grieving seems like a horrible idea. if she wants to talk to him about it she will edit: all he needs to do is be available. [/ QUOTE ] I'm not arguing against being available. I'm also not arguing against letting her come to you. What I am arguing for is being aware that this must come to the table somehow. And when people start dying that's a sign that there isn't much time to lose. [/ QUOTE ] What you are saying is insanely dumb. You should stop posting in this thread. |

[/ QUOTE ] the fact that someone else killed themselves doesn't necessarily mean OP's friend is going through anything other than the grief of losing a brother to suicide. he's been out of the house for a while, we have no way of knowing whether this is a family-related issue or not. it may well be, but you have absolutely no way of knowing that. and, like others have said, the last thing this girl needs is some amateur psychiatrist trying to involve her in a family therapy session when he has no [censored] clue what he's doing. so yeah, what you are saying is pretty retarded. |
