Oh my goodness this is really awful and sad. I often wondered about the sheer amount of stress and mental anguish that must have haunted her. Poor girl.
Y’know I’ve had a really shit day finalising moving house, things have gone wrong and I got bloody angry earlier. But hey, I’ll be there again tomorrow carrying on because what happened to me today is damn trivial.
Sad news, may she rest eternally in peace.

All due respect, but I read your comment as trivializing her lengthy, arduous battle with suicide, and I’d very much like to give you the benefit of the doubt — not only for the benefit of those who thankfully have no idea what it’s like, but most of all for those that do. 🙇🏽♂️

I’m sorry but…how do you read it that way? To me it comes across quite clearly as just the opposite, and your comment comes across as incredibly rude and looking for a fight. I suspect that’s also where the downvotes came from.

Personally I’m not a fan of comparing misfortunes as a way to feel better or worse about your own but I also think it’s basically a cultural thing that people do without really meaning any harm and something that you can’t expect everyone to have really thought about and corrected.
