Tragedy

[Sully]

While Dallas fans are jumping up and down because they won a football game, REAL life strikes a family and The team.

Throwing out the cliche "thoughts and prayers" are hollow. I just hope this young man was saved and in a better place now.

Yeah I pray that is the case too. I don't know how he managed to play yesterday!

I heard it happen during the game and Gallup wasn't told until after the game. Suicide is a real tragedy...

Terrible news. Thoughts and prayers are with them.

Oh I wasn't aware it happened during the game for some reason I thought Saturday. Yeah suicide is a tough one on everybody.

My brother offed himself 2 years ago. The biggest tragedy are those left behind trying to make sense out of something that makes no sense. Hopefully he was in chronic pain or something so those left behind don't spend the rest of their lives asking themselves why.

I think I read his sister was at the game and she told him and I think Jerry told the rest of the team. It's too bad that people feel that's the only option. Robin Williams suicide really opened my eyes, I mean a man with his means and could access the best mental care facilities and people in the world, he only saw one way.

In some situations the logical part of the brain is completely usurped and replaced by the anxiety, depression, or whatever driving force is behind the suicidal thoughts.

I am deeply saddened by this.

I have battled depression myself, it takes a lot of work and effort to get through depression and to live a healthy life with it. I at first battled mine with my an anti-depressant and counselling. The thing with depression and anxiety, it's not as simple as a pill will fix everything. You need counselling that also teaches coping skills. Another important factor, proper diagnosis.

I agree, people who end their own life usually have been contemplating it for a while.

Puts things in to perspective.

That's because there is no hope in the persons mind. How sad for the Gallup family and friends.
