Life

Are you ever able to fully comprehend someone taking their own life? that's the question that's been lodged in my mind since yesterday morning, when I found out that someone we knew very well had done just that.

I'm trying to understand what would lead someone to feel that there was no way out, that things had reached a stage where the only option open to them was to end it all. That there was no one that could help, nothing that could be done. That there was no small sliver of hope to cling on to.

I just don't understand.

I just feel so upset and sad.
