Thinking about suicide…William “Billy” Maxell Jr. and YOU

Jump to Comments

How can you tell if someone is thinking about suicide? We cannot ask William Billy Maxell Jr. because he just committed suicide and took his family with him. This is the sad trend of suicide that we have written about on this site all year along

 It is a question that we are frequently asked on this site.

 Who is thinking about suicide?

The answer is that there is no answer. Yes, there are signs but the inner person is in a war daily and must be treated from the inside.  The problem is deep and is often carried about on the inside without others knowing. One of the problem is the false belief that we are suppose to solve our problems alone. This is ego and it does not work

Why did William Billy Maxell Jr. just commit suicide and decided to take his wife and 2 children with him?

We are living in a sad world that is crowded but isolated. We lack the time and concern for the person who is sick depressed or suicidal.

Why? because we are too busy.

Everyone is busy and this is a major problem. We have only a few short words for so-called friends as we sink back into our own little world of email..text messages and laptops.

How can we know if someone is thinking about suicide? We need realrelationships  not short sentences and running on your way. I saw a man last week stop  friend on the street. This was the literal conversation

Friend #1 : Hey ..How are you!

Friend #2 : Busy …trying to be busy..(as he walked away)

Friend #1 I just wanted to talk to you about….(too late Friend #1 was gone) 

Sadly, i saw this with my own eyes

Did William Billy Maxell Jr try to have a conversation before the murder suicide? We do not know but what we do know is that we need to be super sensitive to others these days. Many are in pain and we must go the extra mile to know what is going on in the heads of those in pain

Every llittle sign IS a sign  maybe you know someone who is thinking about suicide but are you also too busy to catch the signs…..
