I have recieved sad news today from my Facebook feed. Apparently  konotashi is no longer with us. Apparently she was battling deepression and lost her fight with it. This is very concerning because it is almost reminiscent of the death of Robin Williams not to long ago. Depression is a very serious thing and I know that I have had battles with it myself, even going so far as to having suicidal thoughts, but I never give into them. To say that such people are "selfish" when they commit these acts is ignorance at its finest. People deal with depression in different ways and for some, they see no way out of it. I dont know what was going on with Marissa but I feel a great ammount of guilt that I was unable to help her. I sure wish I had gotten to know her but now, I guess I never will until the afterlife. To the friends and family of Marissa I give you my deepest sympathy and condolences, its a tragedy what has happened and I hope that in time, all wounds will heal for you. I lost my best friend Trey last year, although not under the same circumstances. I know and can empathize with such a loss, its painful and takes time to move on from such an event. Please if you are ever having problems with depression talk to some one and get the help you need, dont resort to fixing a temperary problem with a permanent solution you may end up regretting. There are people there fo you that love you and will care for you, and I am one of them. May you rest in peace Marissa, No Pain Remains, No Feeling, Eternity Awaits.
