“Why did they do it?” “What makes life so unbearable that the only option is to take their life?”
In the wake of several suicides by famous people (Anthony Bourdain and Kate Spade), I think it’s so important to contribute to the conversations going on about this. And of course, the first question that comes to many of our minds is why did they do it?
The travesty of suicide cuts across people who seem to have a lot of material wealth and those who don’t. People who have families and those who don’t. There are even therapists who’ve done it.
