Wow, I opened up hubski for the first time in a while and this is the first thing I saw... Both heartbreaking (for you/Chris specifically and in general mental illness/suicide) and heartwarming. I'm glad the journal and message to you surfaced (particularly with the timing that it did) and that it provided feelings of relief and closure.

Thank you. I'd actually just gotten back into hubski myself when I posted it. My last activity was almost 2 years ago.

Re: Chris' words, the part that really stuck out in his note to me was this:

    There was always an emptiness in me that no amount of partying and merriment could ever fill. But it's not to say we didn't try. And if anyone could cure somebody's ills with a good time, it would have been you.

I was welling up reading the note for the first time obviously, but the flood gates opened when I got to that. Made me feel special and so fortunate to have known him.
