How did your friends do it?

One guy who had a startup company lost a lot of stock. He took a ton of sleeping pills and never woke up. He was 30. 2nd friend was a brilliant guy in the spectrum. He couldn't deal with all the human stupidity in this world and nothing made him feel like he fit in. He used an exit bag but before he did it, he called or emailed everyone to make amends or thank them for being his friend. The other two friends went mysteriously. Their families are not releasing details other than "died suddenly". I know for a fact that one of them hated the way the world was going. He went from being a dem to a libertarian and holed himself up at home with firearms and was into prepping. I suspect he shot himself.
I know a few more who died but I wasn't too close to them. One hanged himself but since his family is religious, they said he accidentally hanged himself. Another guy jumped off a bridge. His gf seemed cheerful at his funeral. Hmm..
Funny, most of these people went to high school with me and my school had a massive bullying problem that never got addressed. Corellation and causation?

 

[Opichi]

Kurt Cobain has planted himself as my main comfort icon for suicide, my other being Robin Williams.

 

[DemonicAngel]

Chester Bennington

July 20th is 5 years. If I get the guts by then, it might be a pretty good day to go

 

[FuneralCry]

Those who ctb by hanging. At the moment I cannot think of any examples of people who ctb this way but hanging is the method that I fear and it seems so difficult to go through with so I envy those who had the courage for it. They were able to set themselves free from all the pain.

That would be numbers 2, 3 and 4 on my list.

 

[Mr. Incapable]

I wouldn't call them my suicide icons but some suicides I think about often are Alexander McQueen, Kate Spade, Chris Cornell, Lucy Gordon, L'ren Scott, Gu Hara, Sulli, Haruma Miura, Yuko Takeuchi, Chris Bennington, Caroline Flack, Anthony Bourdain, Robin Williams, Choi Jin-sil - coincidentally they all hanged themselves and I think the reason these cases stand out to me is because this is also the method I plan to do

 

[Symbiote]

The one guy who stole an empty passenger jet, did a barrel roll, and then crashed into the mountain.

Wow, didn't know about him: Richard Russell.

I only knew of the one who took a plane load of passengers with him.

 

[Euthanza]

Oh yes, from Socrates, Seneca, Cleopatra, Alan Turing, to Evelyn McHale - the most beautiful suicide

Ah yeah, Evelyn McHale. Good shout; it's quite a picture of her out there.

 

[Coffeebean77]

Christine Chubbuck and Kate Spade

 

[Mia Wallace]

Chester and Chris Cornell for sure. Although there is the conspiracy that Chris was murdered which if you're a lover of his music like myself, then you know that's not true.
Robin Williams as well. What a shock that was. Goes to show how much a smile and laugh can hide.
Amy Winehouse although she choked to death on her vomit after drinking too much alcohol, you know she was killing herself slowly with her drug and alcohol abuse.

I go back and forth between New York City and the Bay Area, California. Yeah, we are notorious for that. High stress, superficial worlds, lots of pressure, hypercompetitive, etc.
