I have a serious question. I am just human I don't have all the answers.

Why would someone commit suicide after marrying the love of their life, after having like 7-10 kids? It is selfish leaving their partner with that many children and leaving all responsibilities with the person they planned to spend the rest of their life with. They were more than well off. They had a beautiful life many crave for.

This post may be sensitive and I'm sorry. I just have so much questions. If you don't want to reply to this don't bother. I just want answers.

As others have mentioned, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors or in a person’s mind. I can only address this from my own experience and say that after suffering from clinical depression for over 40 years I understand how despair and hopelessness can drag you under like the tide.

Just watched an interview with Martin Short who tragically lost his daughter to suicide. He said something which really resonated with me. That mental illness is a disease. Like cancer is a disease. And that sadly sometimes the prognosis is terminal.

I think of this type of death as really being death from an illness—a mental illness. In some ways it’s analogous to some kinds of cancer. It can be with you a long time before it’s even detectable, but if you have a bad enough case it’s almost impossible to conquer it. In most cases I don’t see it as selfish because I don’t know that the person could really control the illness.

I am sorry if this has happened to someone you know and love.

@Harmonium1923 it's not someone I know. I just came across it on the internet.
No illness is "selfish" - mental illness is still illness.

we don't know that she did commit suicide.. what if someone else killed her and staged it?

even if she did off herself which we don't know that she did.. you don't know what people are going through mentally and emotionally.. she could have had a traumatic past haunting her or post pregnancy depression or maybe she wanted a divorce and the guy is not as nice as he seems or something else was going on.. i don't take all news at face value because it's not always true sometimes

@GunFinger assuming she even did kill herself.. how is he not aware of her mental anguish? Im less inclined to show sympathy for him in this situation.

@GoFish it's a father who killed himself. She most probably knew it.

@GunFinger oh i see 🤐 sometimes people are not as rich as people think they are.. some people live in deep debt it may have been too much for him.. who knows
I mean who knows what things are really like behind closed doors. That many kids sounds like an absolute nightmare to me.

It feels/sounds as if the the whole story isn't there. You are right, with what you just wrote there is zero apparent reasons, but apparent and real are two different things.

There was something... a deep seated trauma from the past she couldn't overcome, something in the picture perfect marriage that wasn't perfect... something.

How things look on the outside and how they really are on the inside are two different things. You can seem to have the world and still have nothing.

There is only one person who can answer this and they`re not around now.

How does one explain mental illness? In many cases it's a terminal disease. It is mysterious because it's very difficult to diagnose or detect in a timely manner and almost impossible to cure.

Sometimes murder can be staged to look like suicide. We will likely never know.
