Mathew's comments: Your life — and death — online

    dag.... that is tragic. It's so easy when you get in a hole to think you'll never see the sun again. People feeling connected 24/7 but lonelier too, and the holiday season sometimes exacerbates it :(

    This sent chills through my spine to think that he broadcasted it for everybody to view. But I guess he was so self-enveloped he didn't think about the impact it might have on the other chatters. Also, like antje said, such a shame that he was connected with other people but still felt so useless.

    You might have heard already Mathew - I've just found out, through http://thedailyvoice.com/voice/2008/11/black-te..., that some of the people in the forum were actually egging him on! Just sickening, absolutely unbelievable.

    Wow... I was in quite a good mood until i read that... I do agree with you thats its suprising that more people have not done it given the amount of people online these days and the "celebrity" even in death that it obviously brings... It just sickens me that people actually encouraged him to do it and not try to help... there are some seriously sick people in this world!
