So this young kid at my work committed suicide Monday night.

Its really a shock, because I worked Monday night, but I was off yesterday, but I heard his name on the news and it sounded familiar. Then I found out what happened, and its hard to sink in. He left in the middle of his shift to go do it as well, which makes it hit home even more. I didn't actually know him all that well, nor did I talk to him very much, but the people who did said he seemed to be happy, and was engaging with everyone. I know that the signs of someone wanting to commit suicide can be very different from stereotypical views of a person who is suicidal so that part doesn't surprise me. I'm about to go into work now, and I'm kinda scared about it because of how sad the atmosphere is there. It's just an unbelievable situation since he was a seemingly normal high school kid. I just had to share here, and get this off my chest.

Jeez, I'm sorry to hear that. My condolences and best wishes to them.

Oof, that's terrible. If I remember correctly you're a store manager/owner, I hope you and the staff are coping well enough.\

High school kid my god. I am sorry to hear this. I have battled depression since I was around 15, had those kind of thoughts. I wish I could have talked to this young man.

All the way back in 2005 , A guy at the restaurant I worked killed his mom with sword - then turned it on himself . I didnt know at all as he was a waiter , I was a valet for an outside company - still very shocking
