Usually, out of respect for the surviving members of the family, the media tries to steer clear of deaths under questionable circumstances. And cause of death, unless under criminal suspicion, isn't in the public interest unless the resulting death serves a purpose to expose a larger problem.
Years ago, a very popular high school teacher in Plano, TX took his own life. The school and students were in a state of shock because he was loved by all who knew him. A couple of days later, the story appeared of this poor man's fight with clinical depression and I began to connect to his story as I was diagnosed but not to the degree he was fighting. The story chronicled everything this poor man did to try and beat it, counseling, drugs, even shock therapy and finally gave up hope that he would ever "feel normal". His friends interviewed all said the same thing "saddened but not shocked" and he fought it as long as he could.
We see these stories about celebrities, to us riding the crest of the wave, that take their own lives and we are shocked because from our point of view they had everything going for them. What we can't see killed them.
Mental health is the least understood and addressed issue in this country. There are certain conditions that I not only understand suicide but might take that path myself if the pain was unbearable and unrelenting and it was all hopeless except for that one hitch. I would stop being a victim but I would create more victims.
The audacity that survivors have to think they could have prevented another person from making the single hardest and reversible decision in their lives amazes me. Strangers manning suicide prevention lines have better success than family or friends that suffer that guilt that they didn't do enough.
