I agree with Dark here. Pretty much the entire smash community IS stupid. ^^;

Usually with deaths in the family the last thing you need are people that do tick you off no matter how big or small either on the net or in reality. For something like that I'd wouldn't worry about gaming let alone a tournament. Just be there for your family and if your friends want to support you let them. That shows they care as well.

I just got off the ohone with my sister. She told me what happen. My brother hanged himself. He was a depressed man, like myself. Something happen with him and his wife. They got into a argument. Im not gonna get into what is was about, but later on she left and he was alone. Later she comes home and finds him I believe on the floor with a broken arm and leg. I am not sure if he jummped from his window or what. But he ended his life dude to fustration with his wife and his life.

He could have just came back to NYC and be closer to family. But most of the family blame his wife for this. I don't know who to blame, But that is not important. I lost a brother in all this. His funeral is gonna be in Puerto Rico. I won't be able to make that. So I'll never get to see him again.

I also wanted to die. but I decided to keep trying till my heart can't beat no more. Me and my bro were almost the same and can relate on alot of stuff. And to actually hear he ended his life cause someone pushed him over the edge knowing how depressed he is makes me sick. One of the many reasons I hate people, selfish brainless *******s who only think about themselves.

Idk how to feel about myself right now since I wanted to die a while back. But I feel like an idiot. I don't think I will be able to feel good about myself for anything. The fact that I wanted to die makes me feel weak. really when one close to you actually does it. I don't know what to think or say anymore.

I don't know the situation between your brother and his wife, but I can say, from dating a depressed individual, even though I am completely stable and well adjusted, it can be tremendously stressful and taxing on me to deal with his problems all the time.

Yes I know that I need to try to be sensitive and understanding, but if someone is depressed enough, that means that whoever is "taking care" of them has to, really, be completely selfless. Personally I feel like I'm never allowed to make a mistake, and never allowed to have a bad day (which, luckily, I rarely have). But sometimes I have my own problems and sometimes I just can't take it. It's easy for an acquaintance to cut ties for a bit, but when you're dating someone like that, you really can't get away even when you need to, and it's even more intense if you're married. People are ultimately people, not saints, We have faults and sometimes we can't give all of ourselves all the time. To make things worse, when someone is at their most depressed and needs help the most, that is often when they become the most difficult to be around, and push people away.

I am not trying to say it's your brother's fault rather than his wife's, nor am I trying to say that it's her fault either. The thing is, it's unfair to hate someone for "pushing someone over the edge" when they are depressed automatically making the assumption that it would have been easy to help hold them back.

And, ultimately, blaming someone doesn't really help anyone or anything at all. So when there is a difficult situation like this, it's best to try to heal wounds rather than to cause fresh ones. I'm sure things are REALLY difficult on his wife right now and I'm sure she may be blaming herself and she may feel like her husband's entire family blames her. The worst thing you could do is to lay everything on her and to be visibly disgusted by her.


I understand that what you are going through must be very difficult, but, again, as someone in a relationship with an emotionally unstable, chronically depressed individual, I find it a touch offensive to demonize the wife for not preventing it. If her position is like mine, and it seems like it may have been worse, it is tremendously stressful, difficult and exhausting. When someone has such a hard job, can you really HATE them when they fall short?



Again, I don't know the exact situation, but I know that, in situations like this, it is natural to want to blame someone, but it's unfair to jump to conclusions and bring more harm to those who are already hurting, and blame will not reverse anything nor will it lessen the pain.

 

[Dark.Pch]

Im not really point fingers at anyone here. Im more pissed at the fact that he ended his life. All he had to do was come back to NYC like he did in january when he was having problems with his wife. His was close to family and friends. My mom even offered him to come back once again and pay for his flight. Yet he decided to say the hell with it all. Pointing fingers is just gonna cause more angry and pain.

And Praxis is officially the best Peach in my book, his turnips are so hot you dont even know. He also looks almost exactly like another user who goes by the name Sephiroths Masamune.

Wait what?

 

[Eddie G]

LOL that hard bait.

 

[Pikaville]

I wanted to kill myself a few years back.

I ****ing hated life.

Getting out of that really dark place is so so difficult, but it can be done.

You just need decent people who care about you in your life.

People you can tell anything.

Having/achieving goals helped me a lot too.

Dark man I'm really sorry for you and your family, even though that probably doesn't really mean much to you.

 

[Dark.Pch]

I really don't have many people to talk too. Most people that I know are from the smash community, outside of that, I really don't have much friends. I dont think I ever crided so much for just a long period of time in one day like I did today.

I don't think I have any goals. I don't see anything for me to achieving or to go for. But what you did say helps, even if I hardly know you. This is just another hard challenge that came out of no where that I gotta deal with.

 

[Airgemini]

Time heals everything. You just have to hang in there and battle it out.

 

[MechaWave]

You’re not alone, Dark. Long while back I wanted to die but never went into a suicide phase because I still want to experience life. I don’t have many friends in life either, or even the Smash community (but that’s on my part because I have yet to go into an IRL tournament.) Right now I’m a very lonely and bored individual and nothing besides Smash really makes me joyful or excited. Being introspective is not fun. Being around other people besides my family (who also are boring a little, except my Mom and little brother) just drains so much energy out of me. Have faith Dark, just let time take its course. It helped me from going into the “suicide phase”. :]

 

[JigglyZelda003]

I'm sorry about your loss Dark

I don't think I have any goals. I don't see anything for me to achieving or to go for.

Dark you must have some goals, even small ones. sometimes setting little goals can help in eventually setting higher and tougher goals.

Your life kinda sounds like mine.

I had one, but im giving up on it. I am not gonna built and build up more stress on myself. Really wqhen you have a whole bunch of people saying I can't do it. I just wanted all to end.

 

[deepseadiva]

Kyle, that was a beautiful post.

Dark, you're a good guy. Not perfect, but I've always admired a lot in your person. Keep up that strength you've always had.

 

[Dark.Pch]

I think I carried on ruining this thread long enough with this. So I'm gonna go to bed so this place can be back to normal and not revoled around me. felling a lilweak and ired with all that fluid I let run down my face today. Sorry for that and thanks to everyone for your words.

I will say one thing though. If you have an anoying lil sibling, cousin, problem with family members. You should be greatful that are still alive and you are atleast able to talk to them. Wether fighting with them or not. You need to but your differences aside. Cause you never know when you will lose them. Or when they would lose you. It can happen at any time unexpected. Me and my crazy mom spoke on the phone today, we had a heartbreaking talk. She told me she loves me. She has not told me then since I was like 6. And I am 23 now. We put our differences aside despite all the cazy **** she said and did to me that I could never forgive.

Cherish the people you have in your life right now. Go to them and tell them you love them. No matter how much they may annoy you or piss you off. Take the time to talk to them. patch things up. Cause right now, I am kinda regretting not being there for my brother more.its not a good feeling and I don't want any of you to experience this.

Good Nite.

 

[Two-Ell]

Good night Dark, please feel free to chat with me on AIM if you ever want to talk.

 

[Kisamealex3]

Yo, Dark. I don't really know you too well but, you've talked to me a bit on AIM/at events about Smash and you've really helped me.

Regardless, I view you as a friend. I'm there for all of my friends. So even if I can only see you once every 2 weeks at a smash event, you can talk to me on AIM about anything you want.

Hope everything gets better.

EDIT: I'm tearing :'(.

This sounds too much like my uncle's life. He committed suicide before I was born but, it really hurt my mother and I see it today. Hang in there, Dark. You can make it, you're a great person, I can tell.

 

[[FBC] Papa Mink]

Dark.

I've had really dark days.
REALLY dark days..

Like alot of people in here have said, i don't really know you.
But if you need someone to talk to, i'm always here man.

:-\ Once again, i'm really sorry for your loss. I can't imagine what it would be like.

 

[Thebest1pj]

Night dark peach hope you feel better.

 

[AtmaIllumina]

I wonder if it's too late for me to post a bio about myself anf why I play Peach...

In all honesty, it's rather easy for me to avoid opponents when I kill them and they have invincibility frames. Alls you gotta do is stay under them. and when they want to attack, run away. When they've cornered you to the ledge, jump as though you're going behind them, baiting them, and then float cand cancel your float immediately (putting you in the same location as before). They'll try to attack so you can just powershield>grab or dair>something them afterwards. You could also get away with turnip rain until you get a good turnip xD

 

[Airgemini]

It's never too late. Go ahead!

[Espy Rose]

to be fair dfw does get tons of new people, they just all get discouraged because of how gay we play and rage quit. >.>

That's what I heard.
Seriously, be friendly to them. That also includes NOT curb stomping them into oblivion when you play them in tournaments. You want to encourage them to come back and play. Talk to them, mingle.

You know, make some friends.

^ Only reason I'm still in the competitive scene.

It's already not become about winning anymore, for me. I just love the people I end up meeting at these things. We have an extremely amazing mesh of different kinds of people. Now, it's just doing well with my character that matters. Playing for the placing and experience is enriching.


Oh, and hi Peach boards.
