Agreed—in my entire youth I knew two teenagers who committed suicide—zero deaths from any other cause.

This would have been out of thousands of kids who were in various classes at school or college.

To kids I knew committed suicide, but by the time they did one was in college and the other was 22,23, or 24. But neither of them had a personality I thought would lead to suicide.

In fact one of them was a set of brothers about 1.5 years apart. The type A one didn't commit suicide, the carefree slob did. I still can't believe he did. I wasn't in touch with either of them when they died, but I still think about them, and wish they were around.
