I'm so sorry about the promised "No Pain, No Gain" update that never came. But, whereas before I had no excuse other than being lazy, I now do have a good reason as to why I'm not writing.
I've had the worst couple of days of my life. A good friend of mine tried to kill himself Saturday night. I knew he had been depressed and I spent a lot of time talking with him online. He said it made him feel better...
Then Saturday evening my internet went down and I couldn't get in touch with him in any way. Monday morning I got a call from a mutual friend...He'd slit his wrists in the bathtub.
He's now in the hospital, and everyone says he will be fine. And I believe that physically he will be just fine. It's the mental part that I'm worried about...
I feel like all this is my fault somehow. Had I just got online, it probably wouldn't have happened. He'd still be home, writing his songs...
And as if that is not enough, everything in my live is going to hell again. I think I've hit another low phase...And I'm so worried about him that I can't concentrate on anything. I don't know how long my boss will tolerate it...maybe I should tell her the short story.
So that is the reason...
I'm sorry for bothering you guys with this, but I can't carry this alone. Please forgive me for the delay, I will try to keep on writing the story...
