I’m very sorry about the young woman who could not see her way through her current circumstances. There is not an adult on earth who hasn’t experienced at least a little depression. The hopelessness that tells one’s heart that nothing will change or that life is simply intolerable for whatever reason-—these are the lies that finally drive a person to act in desperation to set themselves free from the despair forever. How terribly sad.

We all have. It's part of living. Thanks God I, and most people, have never felt any depression that deep.

I am convinced that to drive an otherwise healthy person with every reason to live to the point of suicide, there has to be some sort of physical/chemical reason. It has to be far more than just the standard psychological down times that are just part of living for everyone. There is something else happening in those cases.

I pray that they can find an answer. Seeing a wonderful young person go like that is just so tragic.
