After a close friend killed herself (2002) was the first time I sought therapy, though I still find it hard to talk about. I'd supported her after numerous suicide attempts and we'd been each other's only confidants, so when she went, there was no-one who I felt I could talk to. We'd always said that we wouldn't kill ourselves if we didn't do it together and I felt she'd broken that promise and left me feeling horrific.

She died violently and in an unusual way which was difficult to prove was suicide, and I was involved in helping the police, submitting a statement to the inquest etc, which made it harder for me and I already had pre-existing, untreated depression.

Declan, that strikes a chord with me. My friend also came back to the city we went to school in. Infact we'd both gone there for the weekend to meet up with each other, but the morning before we were due to meet that evening,, she did it.
