I've known people who have. I once had to talk someone out of it when I was about 21. I understand the pull though. I understand why people go under and why they can't pull themselves back up. I just hope they can. vickiejohnstonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15947507866512596346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128469884487763839.post-10773500578557594562017-07-24T13:09:30.007-07:002017-07-24T13:09:30.007-07:00Thank you!
