    For many, it's the only option and that terrifies me to no end. Teens today have so much going for them in every way but find that "ending it" is the better solution ? It never has to be that way and parents/siblings/friends need to work together and discuss issues openly in a non-confrontational way otherwise there'll be more of this.......

    I know many people who have ended their lives I have seen and experience first hand the shock wave of grief and heartbreak it’s sent through a community please talk to people don’t be ashamed of how you feel sometimes friends can’t help but that isn’t the end google support go and see counsellors open up and I beg you if you are friends with someone who has opened up to you and you are worried and don’t feel like you can support them that’s okay somethings friends just can’t fix on their own, tell a counsellor or the persons parents it will do so much good for you and for them and to anyone who is reading this right now and thinking about ending their own life please note it doesn’t end the pain it just hands it to someone else, you won’t be able to handle it on your own so please talk to someone it will help ❤️

    Heart-stopping, tense, moving and deep film! Very strong romantic Romeo & Juliet type tragedy. A sad reality for many youths, especially LGBT ones who feel scared, ostracized and ignored for being who they are. Truly a film to be shown at schools and anti-bullying events. It is high time for the bigotry and hate to end! All it is doing is ruining lives and loves before they even come full circle. My best wishes and prayers go out to all who have lost a loved one to suicide and I applaud all those who are out there helping those who need a shoulder to lean on and ear to hear their stories.

      Shobha BR I think that it’s open to interpretation but the way I saw it is that the curly hair guy was his inner thoughts and feelings that were trying to convince him to commit suicide. I think the last scene in between the time that he drops the gun and when it shows his body was a reflection of the last thoughts in the split second of pulling the trigger and how when someone attempts to commit suicide they display an instant regret and try to stop it but at that point it’s unfortunately too late. That’s just my interpretation though.

      This is from my understanding but here goes:
      Black (im going to call them black and white) planned that they will kill themselves because they are tired of living the same day everytime. White wasn't sure of this but after the persuasion of Black, he agreed. They met up to their place and and Black shooted White then himself. White (as a ghost) said that he couldn't do it and want to live but Black said that they were already dead. The damage has been done.
      Hope ir makes sense.

    That guy is not a real friend . He actually was Satan who was that fake friend “ trying to get him to destroy himself in his deep depression! Satan and his demons are like this , trying to get people to destroy themselves in different ways and not trust God! In your darkest moments look up and turn to the true Light 💡 Jesus ! He wants to be your true and best friend and The Father who will always give you time to talk!!
