Social media users have been left in shock after a yet to be identified teenage girl died by suicide after being dumped by her boyfriend. This girl wrote a letter to her sister giving reasons why she decided to end her life.
In her suicidal note she left for her sister, this teenage girl said that she can’t have this heartbreak as it was too much for her to bear. She said that she had loved this man with all her life but he never trusted her.
She therefore doesn’t see the reason as to why she should continue living while not being appreciated. She went ahead to tell her sister how she was going to join her mum who died already and maybe she could stop the pain she was going through.
This teenage girl who died by suicide also wrote a part of her father saying that she never wished to die before him. However, the pain was too much for her to live with, thus death came in handy as the only solution for her.
“I’m sorry sister Christine but I can’t live with this heartbreak. I loved him but he never trusted me. There is no need for me to live anymore in this world. Let me join mummy. Father, I never wished to die before you but I have to.” Part of her note read. And she asked her sister to take care of their father.
“I loved this man with everything in my life but he never saw my love. I’m sorry but I had to do it. I wish you all the best in the world. Sister take care of Papa,” the suicide note continued to read.
Well, this young girl was found hanging in the house with a rope around her neck. And it should be known that, suicide resulting from heartbreaks in young people and even adults is not a new thing as it has been happening and nothing has been done to curb it because it is hard.
Many people are not mentally strong and the occurrence of heartbreak always shatters them to the core. With nobody to counsel them or offer support, taking their own lives always comes as the top solution for them.
It’s always therefore good to check on people who are in relationships or even those who aren’t because many people battle depression. And mental health is a topic that hasn’t yet been given much thought in Africa.
Black people are thought to be automatically strong both mentally and physically but they also break down at some point in life.
