If you want to take your own life that's your choice to make, but don't take anyone else with you. Exactly what I thought. According to reports he had a history of domestic violence and had an order to stay away from his family no closer than 200ft. Poor little baby.

You'd see the title with or without it, and the title alone is enough to know not to open the thread surely? Would "TW" really stop someone being triggered?

Luc 4,776 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Tho I respect your idea to bring awareness, and making a thread about something shocking or something that made you feel strong emotions is not weird, I don't think we need this kind of news on ggd not to downplay the importance of awareness that many people are in bad mental health. With that in mind, remember that if you ever need to talk about your own feelings, for sure make a thread, post a status update, send a PM to people you trust, and get in touch with professional help (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_suicide_crisis_lines) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
REALITY 80,177 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I don't understand why people have a prolem with sharing this kind of news on GGD...Saying "this kind of news doesn't belong here" or "it's irrelevant" makes absolutely no sense. This is a pop forum, but we have news of all kinds from different places here. It's not like this is the first time someone has shared heartbreaking and tragic news...
