so my family is suppose to be going to a christmas concert today. yesterday when i was driving home some asshole swerved into my lane which made me swerve and lost control of the car and i ended up spinning out the car. i landed in the bushes and the most i have is like whiplash. then my aunt called my dad today and told him that my cousin committed suicide. i was never close to this cousin. the last time i saw him was like 2 years or so ago. he was in the military and was in iraq so everyone is just saying it was the stress of all that that made him kill himself. its kinda weird because this last week a kid from my old high school killed himself. everyone is just really sad right now and i just dont know how to act because all i keep thinking is “good for him. he got out of this hellhole.” i think were still going to the concert until my aunt sees if we need to do anything.

@outinthedark: It’s amazing how people just march on isn’t it? Or assign a reason for why someone kills themselves without the benefit of actually walking in their shoes.
Glad you didn’t get hurt in the car accident. People off themselves year round, but holiday season is definitely the time of year where more people per capita off themselves than any other time of year. Fucking christian holidays. Or rather, fucking capitalist holidays because lets face it there is nothing left of what Christmas represents. No in this country at least. But that is a whole other argument regarding religion and money and all kinds of scary bullshit that make people on sane forums loose their shit….and since this is an insane forum…lets leave that one for the truly nutcases that inhabit the political forums on Reddit.
So my heart goes out to you, lots of tragedy. I’ll be around to listen. You can vent. Or not vent. Or post pictures of the Sunday brunch your family forced you to go to. I really like eggs benedict, so snap some pictures of them for me.
I kinda go through that too. Every time I hear of a suicide or an early death I think to myself. They got out of this hellhole. I get kinda envious of it. Suicide and death is kinda of sad but aslso beautiful at the same time.
