The counselor pulled me out of class tonight to inform my that one of the students from last year had committed suicide.
Perfectly sweet, kind kid. He was smart too, but apparently susceptible to drugs and depression.

D: Title says it all, pretty much.

Bit overdramatic of your councillor, if you ask me. They could have asked to see you after class instead. ¬.¬
Anyway, I digress. It's terrible that this happened to him. Way too many young people do it.

*hugs Ice* I need hugs, so you'll have to deal with it.  I understand that they only wanted to talk to the students who knew him and class ends at 9:15, so that doesn't bother me that much... though my counselor bugs the crud out of me sometimes. Plus he was all, "I was worried about telling you, I knew you had emotional issues." Thanks, I love knowing I wear my emotional issues on my sleeve. >_> I'm a bit thankful I never saw him at his worst. That I never saw him drugged out on anything stronger than pot... but he was such a nice guy, it hurts. And I'm worried about how his girlfriend is holding up, she was pretty awesome. I hope she does come visit like my science teacher said she might (and maybe come back and graduate). |

It's never really happened to anyone close to me before, but it must be quite depressing  I mean, the last thing anyone really needs is to deal with something like this... |

They had both originally planned on attending again this year (they were both really close to graduation), but the class they had signed up for got canceled after the teacher took off to Canada (o_0). They were supposed to simply switch into another class, but instead dropped out entirely.

That's awful, I'm so sorry. <33
I hope his girlfriend is okay.
