When despair overcomes hope, and suicide results.

I heard yesterday that my friend (who is most probably a womb twin survivor but was not open to it when I mentioned it to her) had died.

She committed suicide.

She didn't choose life. She chose death.

To die is for the pain of living to end at last.  Womb twin survivors find life so very hard - just the fact that you are alive is a problem.

I will not be able to prevent many hundreds of thousands of womb twin survivors from choosing death over life in the next few years. However, I will try very, very hard to get a fresh understanding of why wonderful people like my dear friend, filled with life and humour; kind and compassionate creatures filled with love and surrounded by love, want to kill themselves.  Occasionally, they succeed.

I do not understand it now, but I will. I am determined to do this. And I will take with me the spirits of the many people I have known who are womb twin survivors but who lost the battle against despair.  I was unable to help them because I don't know enough. I will try to learn, but I need help.

If you ever felt suicidal, and you are a womb twin survivor, with proof or without, talk to me about  your suicidal ideas and attempts.  Its all confidential, you can be anonymous if you wish.
