Got some unwelcome news first thing today: Someone I've known for many years recently took their own life. Feeling angry and sad and like a shit friend because we lost touch at some point, and I had no idea of their struggles. But I definitely could have been more curious. My response so far since hearing this news has been to reach out to a few people I've not checked in w/ for a while.

@briankrebs so sorry for your and their family's loss
@briankrebs So sorry to hear of your loss. And it was not you who caused this, but I understand your sadness and regret.
@briankrebs 💔 Hugs to you!
@briankrebs i'm so sorry to hear this. this happened to me earlier this year and I had the same instinct, to reach out to friends I hadn't talked to for awhile. <3
@briankrebs Sorry for your loss. This is hard.
@briankrebs been there, two dear friends, but i only knew one of them was In the Trenches with me. I should have known or said or asked or persisted.
there's a lot of people looking for rays of light in the dark. it's exhausting and sometimes people forget what they were fighting for, or have forgotten what it's like to live without the weight of the wheel they're pushing off their shoulders every day they get out of bed.
i haven't been in danger since 2016, but it stalks us, in a way. #mdd
@briankrebs My deepest sympathies.
@briankrebs I am so sorry. May they be at peace.
@briankrebs 
unfortunately, what you're feeling will likely never fully go away. At least for me it hasn't and it's been over 20 years.
@briankrebs The star isn't a "like", just sympathy
@briankrebs so sorry for your loss. I know this one. It's rough.
