Rest in peace, kiota

I didn't find out the news until just now. I'm so sorry... I should have been paying more attention.

I don't know what else to say... You tried so hard. Although I didn't know you personally, you were a beautiful, talented girl

I'm so sorry that this time, when it was your turn, you couldn't be stopped.

That's the thing... When a person is a multiple attempter, you don't take the attempts and threats seriously anymore. Furthermore, strangely enough, even the suicidal person doesn't take them seriously anymore. When you're suicidal, you're fighting this agonizing battle in your head, and every second you vascillate between wanting to live and wanting to die. You're not exactly sure what you're going to do....

*sigh*

Just friended you so you can read my LJ. I was with her in person, parts of four of the last five days of her life. Amazing coincidence, there was a good chance she would have already gone a week before I traveled out there [for an entirely different reason.]

There are a whole building-full of people she helped....for years. And at the end, both Friday and Saturday nights, 11 and 12 April, she was in intensive conversations, for *hours*, with counselors at Teen Help, where she herself was a suicide-prevention counselor. So she was not alone until at the very absolute end, when she wanted to be.

My condolences to you and everyone else affected by this. It's so unfair and sad. *hugs*

I'm sorry that you heard about Anna's death this way, through my complaint about her LJ being suspended. (I had posted about her death back here.) She was a good person and she really did care about others, even though her own self-destructiveness could not be stopped.

Maybe the best memorial to her is that others choose to live. I keep thinking of that Buffy line, "The hardest thing in this world is to live in it."
