Kid from my high school died

An old friend from high school drove off a bridge earlier today. It's not definitive but its looking like it was a suicide. He was THAT kid in high school that everyone knew, and could brighten up your day in a second.

No matter what you think you have people there for you. You're never alone, and suicide is never the answer.

RIP Jimmy

i feel your pain. last year a girl from my school got kicked out, next day she decided to jump off the George Washington bridge. Total shock to our whole school and such a sad day. Hang in there man.

Shiit, +vibes

reminds me of 2 years ago, my school is on a divided highway, the driveway is at a 90 degree angle, some kid committed suicide by accelerating down the driveway and hitting the divider dead on at 130km/h. We got stuck at school for like 4 hours after we normally would take busses home.

Well I just received the news that he stopped his car on a bridge that is known for people to jump off of and jumped off it.

RIP Jimbo

RIP Jimmy. The sad part is, it always happens to the person that you never expect it from. Suicide is nothing to take lightly, if you know anyone with suicidal thoughts, let someone know. All rationality is lost when someone contemplates suicide.

3 people died from my graduating class, and then 3 more girls died in one accident after graduation. It's a pretty lousy situation, especially at this time of year.

That blows man. + vibes. Anybody dying young is rough. Especially rough with suicides in highschool. A really well known well liked kid at my highschool killed himself when I was a sophomore and it rocked the school for a while.

Shit sucks. Hopefully everyone can pull through eventually.

A kid from my school died in a car accident last year, this kid was wild and thought nothing would ever happen but one night he was ripping down a road approaching a busy highway that bypasses my town, he was ripping in his Volkswagen beetle and got hit by a rigging truck with a huge generator on the back, so it was crazy heavy, he was one of the most well known kids in our school and everybody even the kids that didn't know him that well were heart broken

I find it odd that this would be the kind of kid to kill himself.

I guess people aren't who they always seem to be

Those two things (family and peers) are a huge factor in what causes/enables/makes inevitable suicide. They don't need vibes, they need introspection.

how very unfortunate. Always bothers me to hear about kids dying at high school age...or for that matter, any age. So young and so much life left in them.

Lots of vibes...
My good friend died because a drunk driver was driving on the wrong side of the highway and crashed into his car. It was devastating and there is not a day that goes by that I don't think about him and miss him terribly.

Death came
And now my brother is gone.
Death took
The happiest child around.
Death cares
about nothing at all
Death thinks
of only the pain it causes.
Death happens
oh too quick.

Death came
And tore my family apart.
Death took
our dreams of a family
Death cares
about the tears that fall.
Death thinks
our misery is it's muse.
death happens
oh too quick

Death came
and now i must move on
Death took
my will to hold
Death cares
whether it drags you down or not
Death thinks
we can let go
But sometimes
Death
Happens
OH
To
Quick

Sophmore year I went on a ski trip with 10 friends to Utah, we went In the backcountry with some locals we met and there was a pretty big avalanche. 2 people were buried, 1 was found and he was fine, the other we found 30 min. or so later and he was unconscious and had broken his back. He was in a coma for some time and eventually passed away, very sad and effected the whole school and town.
