another one in less than a month. is it the car scene...?


Or any of the other million things people have to deal with these days?

If anything, the car scene would have been one of his places to "escape"

A huge shame for anyone to end their life, RIP to him and thoughts to his F&F :(

nah, dont. its sad that this happened to him, but that thread was no different to the many goodbye threads on any number of forums ive been on. its quite right to be sceptical of intentions - most people that do so are attention seekers.

obviously he had more going on than we were aware of, but it wasnt our fault that he took his life, so dont regret anything.

harsh? yea maybe, i didnt know him at all, so im kind of biased :P

What i was thinking but didnt know how to write it down. You're right that there are many doing the "I'm leaving..." threads and who's to know that they arent all there, whether its just a stunt or there are real problems.
I think the thread didnt need to be posted but thats just me.

Very sad when anyone loses their life especially when they take their own life.

Thoughts are with his family and friends.

Couldn't have said it better (literally, I wanted to say something like that but couldn't think of how to say it).

I agree.

On that note, just remember what has happened and this is not the thread for an argument over it.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing, you must remember the context in which things happened at the time they happened.

I just hope that these things highlight to someone else that people do give a shit. So speak up if you need too.

Quite true, the car scene would have been one of his places to escape as you put it I know its mine. But unfortunately sometimes that means of escape can become a cause of the problem. People interpret things differently and its 10 x worse on a forum as you can't gauge what peoples real intentions are all the time because you can't hear their tone.

Not saying this had anything to do with Zahid's decision, but I do know it has been a cause in the past.

All I hope is that he is now at peace and that his family can recover from this tragedy.

Terrible news, and if its self inflicted, I cant imagine how his family feel. Having had a close friend who has, I know the feeling of "if only".

does anyone know his real name?

always a shame for someone to take their life, theres always ways to deal with your problems instead of this

RIP :cry:
