So sad. A dear friend’s son is headed off to Vandy next fall, so reading this gave me pause, only because the school mentioned this time is Vandy.
A sobering reminder as some of my friends and I are sending our youngest ones, our babies, out there to college. Finally emptying the nest. Such an exciting time. And yet, it can be so hard. Too hard, sometimes.
I know this can happen anywhere. At high stress schools, or low stress, as in the case of @MaineLonghorn’s nephew. So very sad. Very sorry, @MaineLonhorn, about your loss. No signs. How devastating that must be. Some people hide their pain from their loved ones very well.
I didn’t realize that suicide rates had increased so much just in the past 20 years (@scout59). Any thoughts as to why this is?
