Her last words on camera: “In keeping with Channel 40’s policy of bringing you the latest in ‘blood and guts’, and in living color, you are going to see another first — attempted suicide.” Once you realise there's nothing to be afraid of when you die, there's nothing else to worry about.” Olson, Lenora (2005). The Use of Suicide Notes as an Aid for Understanding Motive in Completed Suicides (Thesis). University of Utah. With a sprinkling of dark humor and a full measure of humanness, Suicide Notes is quirky, surprising, and a riveting read.” —Ellen Hopkins, author of The You I’ve Never Known and Love Lies Beneath In this study we use the subject-verb-object (SVO) network to identify central actors and in particular the way the self (“I”) is related to other people and concepts in suicide notes. The SVO representation is more suitable for this task than the co-occurrence representation as the number of relations a given word is involved in is not determined by the number of its occurrences alone but rather by the centrality of its position in the syntactic structure of sentences in which it occurs. Hence, in the SVO representation most important sentence-building and therefore meaning-making entities have most central position in the network by design (see Network construction section in Supplementary Information (SI) for more details). Therefore, in this approach it is justified to consider node strength (sum of edge weights) an appropriate measure of centrality. Core actors and themes

Finished in a frenzy that reminded me of our last night in Cambridge. Watched my final sunrise. Enjoyed a last cigarette. Didn’t think the view could be any more perfect until I saw that beat-up trilby. Honestly, Sixsmith, as ridiculous as that thing makes you look, I don’t believe I’ve ever seen anything more beautiful. Watched you for as long as I dared. I don’t believe it was a fluke that I saw you first. I believe there is another world waiting for us, Sixsmith. A better world, and I’ll be waiting for you there. I believe we do not stay dead long. Find me beneath the Corsican stars, where we first kissed. So now I'm thinking about it. I'm imagining sitting down with my parents and actually saying, "I'm gay." And you know what? It makes me a little mad. I mean, straight guys don't have to sit their parents down and tell them they like girls.” His note read: “..I am haunted by the vivid memories of killings and corpses and anger and pain … of starving or wounded children, of trigger-happy madmen, often police, of killer executioners …”Abusive Parents: Delia's stepfather William. His most heinous act towards her was attempting to rape her as a younger teen. If there are two negative words, we assume the link is still negative given that the conceptual association is bridging ideas perceived as negative and thus creating additional tension; Following this definition, a triad with a negative word will become balanced if the other two end nodes are positive. An all-positive triad emerges from all positive words or from two positive words with a neutral word. Neutral triads, since they do not contribute to a positive/negative predominance of affect, are not considered (see Fig. 2a). This emotional construction aligns with the definition of balanced ( \(\{+, +, +\}\) and \(\{+, -, -\}\)) and unbalanced ( \(\{-, -, -\}\)) triads in structural balance 42, with the exception that in our application the formation of the unbalanced triad \(\{+, +, -\}\) is not possible.

bridges the gap between gay romance and mainstream fiction in his latest. Ben Ransome, a Continue reading » One time Allie and I skipped school and went to see this foreign film called Los Diablos, where these villagers found a glowing blue ball and peeled pieces off of it to see what was inside. Only the ball was really radioactive, and they all died from the poison. I think that’s what happens when you look too deep inside for the truth. The poison comes out, and you die, even though you have beautiful glowing pieces of blue truth in your fingers.” to my dearest friends and family. i know you’ll miss me, but don’t. i am the lowest being that there’ll ever be; you should live your life without me. i promise you’ll be able to move on. i’ll be in your heart always. no matter what. to my love; my one and only; thank you. we’ve been through hard times and i don’t want you to hate me for what has already been done. you are my sunshine the love to my heart, and air in my lungs, and the one person who ever listened. don’t cry at my funeral; laugh instead. i’ll remember you no matter where i go after death. love AS”Teens in a psych ward populate a novel that overcomes a predictable beginning to make a powerful emotional impact. Regaining consciousness after an aborted suicide attempt, the 15-year-old narrator thinks his parents have “overreacted” by placing him in a 45-day program in the “nuthouse” (“you know, where they keep the people who have sixteen imaginary friends living in their heads”). Readers might need patience as Jeff, the protagonist, goes through a period of denial, delivering sarcastic answers to his shrink, Dr. Katzrupus (Jeff refers to him as “Cat Poop”) and holding himself aloof from the four other patients. But as Jeff begins to form relationships with these teens, Ford's ( Alec Baldwin Doesn't Love Me Notice that our ultimate goal is to identify mental and conceptual associations which are on average most typical for suicide notes. Hence, we do not take a sociological perspective focused on evolution of collective narrative strategies in connection with other social processes 30, 31. Instead, we aim at identifying cognitive patterns which are common across different individuals who committed suicide. Using free associations as linguistic benchmarks for text analysis

His note read: “…I don’t have the passion anymore, and so remember, it’s better to burn out than to fade away.” Having spent 40 hours inside a bunker with his newly wedded wife, Eva Braun, Hitler realized that there was no escape from the Red Army. He had also come to know of the fall of his friend, Benito Mussolini and how he was cut into pieces and thrown into the gutter by the Italian Partisans. Now I just have these reddish scars there. I guess I always will, although Goody says they’ll fade over time. I don’t know if I want them to fade. That probably sounds totally freaky, but part of me doesn’t want to forget what it felt like, even though it hurt. If I forget about the pain, I might also forget that it was a really stupid idea to do it in the first place.”I don't want to hurt you or anybody so please forget about me. Just try. Find yourself a better friend.” If there is a negative word in a triad, the links connected to it will also be negative, representing emotional tension between positive and negative concepts;

One of the most famous members of the 27 Club, Cobain’s death was a tragedy to millions of fans all over the world, many of whom still don’t believe it was a suicide.Healthy in body and mind, I end my life before pitiless old age which has taken from me my pleasures and joys one after another; and which has been stripping me of my physical and mental powers, can paralyse my energy and break my will, making me a burden to myself and to others” But I didn't love you like you loved me. I don't hate you for that. It just makes me sorry, that there isn't someone else who could love you better. Two-time Lambda Literary Award winner Ford's fourth collection of essays offers the adorably cranky humorist the opportunity to rant on how Tiger Beat Adolf Hitler, was too proud to let himself or his wife die in such disgrace and realizing imminent capture, he decided to end his and his wife’s lives. Without any sign of remorse for his deeds as the Führer, Hitler prepared The Last Will that announced the decision of him ending his and his just wedded wife.
