Did I Cause the Suicide?

Did I Cause the Suicide?

Let me put your mind at ease. Suicide comes by two causes. The person has thought about it for so long that it seems a logical way to resolve a problem. That person does it as a rational act. The other is what I call the “Suicide Mood”. It is a sudden drop into despair where the person feels helpless and hopeless as if there is no way out. It is a chemical reaction. That person could have been feeling depressed, anxious, hopeless, manic, sad, helpless, frustrated, or many other sub emotions before the drop. While in that dropped mood he or she may or may not commit suicide. When they come out of it, which may be in seconds or minutes, they do not kill themselves. So, no, you didn’t cause it.
