Gorgeous actor hangs himself

[unicorn]

One always wonders why someone who seems to have everything going for himself would commit suicide. Yet gorgeous Spanish-American actor Francisco San Martin appears to have done just that. What I wouldn't do to be able to live in that body...

I know a few people that have killed themselves. The demons have been there for awhile, not something they woke up one day and decided to do it......

Very sad. You never know what’s going on in someone’s head

Well, studies with nearly-successful suicide survivors have shown that the act is often impulsive, and, more often than not, preceded by an acute interpersonal crisis. I wonder if something could have been done to prevent this one.

• The Houston study interviewed 153 survivors of nearly-lethal suicide attempts, ages 13-34. Survivors of these attempts were thought to be more like suicide completers due to the medical severity of their injuries or the lethality of the methods used. They were asked: “How much time passed between the time you decided to complete suicide and when you actually attempted suicide?” One in four deliberated for less than 5 minutes!  (Simon 2005).
  • Duration of Suicidal Deliberation:
    • 24% said less than 5 minutes
    • 24% said 5-19 minutes
    • 23% said 20 minutes to 1 hour
    • 16% said 2-8 hours
    • 13% said 1 or more days
• A study from Deisenhammer asked people who were seen in a hospital following a suicide attempt how long before their suicidal act they first started thinking about attempting it. 48% said within 10 minutes of making the attempt. The full distribution is as follows:

In an Australian study of survivors of self-inflicted gunshot wounds, 21 of 33 subjects (64%) stated that their attempt was due to an interpersonal conflict with a partner or family member (deMoore 1994). Most survivors were young men who did not suffer from major depression or psychosis, and the act was almost always described as impulsive. A similar study in Texas with 30 firearm attempters found 60% had experienced an interpersonal conflict during the 24 hours preceding their attempt

Not everyones idea of "having it all" is the same.
