I know some brehs refuse to admit, but mental health really must be taken more seriously in the black community. One of my boys from high school hung himself in his closet while his family was out, on new years eve at that. His little brother and sister and parents will be reminded of it every new year for the rest of their lives.
Normally people who are suicidal are way past the point of any logical thinking so all that "why didn't he seek help" or "why didn't he just x, y, z" doesn't really apply. Whatever pain they're feeling outweighs any sense of reasoning,, so even "how could you do this to your friends and family" isn't even a consideration
Just pray you never come close to being in that type of mental state
