How do I act?

[Surviving03]

I hate to bring this terrible news here, but it really hit home for me and think it might for others as well...

As you know if you read my sitch, I am on an Air Force base in Turkey. This morning we got word of a suicide (I work at the hospital) and turns out it was a young SSgt who is going thru a divorce with his wife, who is also active duty. His coworkers apparently knew he had been having a really hard time dealing with the divorce, as it sounds like she was the WAS... we all know just how low this situation can be for all of us... but I wonder what, if any, kind of help he was receiving... I wish I could have known this person and offered some help... or that he could have reached out, maybe if even to this forum for some hope. I am truly saddened that this situation took someones life.

It woke me the hell up... I thought to myself, people are losing their lives over this crap??!!! its not worth that. I am sure he really loved his wife, but you have to learn to love yourself MORE.

If anyone is reading these forums and are having any thoughts of hurting themselves, PLEASE reach out and get help.... do not be ashamed... never lose hope.... you are better than that! Find it in yourself wherever you can....
