I feel the same way about suicide.
Same here. An ex- fiance of mine hung herself in my garage. Dicked my whole world up for a couple years and a memory I'll never forget seeing her. That's what got me addicted to saws and I haven't looked back since

Ptsd ain't no joke, we used to have a local VA here in town and all the old vets walked all over town. You could tell which ones it affected....

I really am hoping you can make a go of it Steve. Hoping for lots of rebuild and repair work for you. Not sure about the porting aspect, you don't seem to have the legs for it...

Me too. That'd be awesome. Rooting for ya, Steve @Stump Shot

Not looking for sympathy. To be honest; I am fukking pissed. I will never understand suicide.
I feel the same way about suicide.

Fellas, not that it's anything more than an explanation that helps folks like us understand better what is happening with the 'victim' of suicide, I watched a documentary some years ago about suicide survivors.

I don't mean people that survived because they changed their minds, I mean failed suicide attempts. One kid explained his experience and what went through his mind. In two words, "instant regret".

The guys that don't survive may be feeling the same thing at the point where it's too late to turn back. I'll never fully understand suicide either, but I do believe in intervention.

Given a little more time, or a push in the right direction, many of these guys may still be around toasting with us this new year. Suicide gives me the sads...:(

Not looking for sympathy. To be honest; I am fukking pissed. I will never understand suicide. To me its selfish and cowardly. I feel so sorry for their families as those poor folks get no closure or proper reasoning.

Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate the well wishes, its just kind of wasted on me. I’m angry. I want to kick these boys in the fukking face and ask them what the hell they think they solved.

It hurts to lose friends for no reason. If you are thinking of suicide, please call me. I will talk *s-wordte to you and spend days on the phone listeining to you. Hell, i’ll drive to wherever you are and take you out for beers and listen to your grievances. Just don’t be selfish.

You aren’t alone. We all have problems. I have more than enough *s-word I don’t want to remember; but I don’t let it dictate my life. Talk to someone. Talk to anyone. Hell, get a hooker and talk to the back of her head while she earns her pay. I don’t care. I won’t judge you. Just don’t be a cowardly piece of *s-word who won’t deal with issues.

I’m having a couple beers and grieving lost friends. I won’t toast them, but I will drink to their memories and reminisce the times we had.
I truly believe it takes a selfish person to go down that dark road. They can't possibly be thinking of anyone but themselves. Seen it my whole life, could never wrap my head around it.

Not gonna lie, this time of year tends to be overly stressful and this year (past year) has stayed with the trend. 2 Marines I knew committed suicide on New Years Eve. Something I’ll never comprehend. My sincerest condolences and thoughts go out to their families. I’ll never understand suicide.
Terribly sorry to hear this news
