Dreamer commits suicide, "didn't see any other option" - Page 5

For those who don't seem to understand this particular news, just know that every dreamer has their own specific situation and circumstance, and if we are to learn anything from this; it must be that the gravity of our situation can reach limits that can become quite drastic and severe. I just know that it's a very hard reality to be in, and this predicament is testing out our patience and so much more. We just have to be very strong individuals throughout all this.

Eff this. It's time we take drastic steps like this as well. I don't mean kill ourselves but do something drastic. Personally If I snap, I'm just going to leave this freakin place by myself within next couple of months. I guarantee you my life span will increase by about 10 years the day I leave America. No more tension about being illegal. No high blood pressure all the time. Our parents have put us in a very bad situation. It's time to take matters into our own hands and abandon ship.

Hutchinson, Hatch, McCain, Snowe, Collins, All 5/6 Democratic Senators who voted No wrote this Dreamer's death sentence and sealed his fate last December. With him the DREAM ACT IS OFFICIALLY DEAD. No point in living here like zombies.

It isn't as simple as just thinking: "Well, fuck the US. They don't want me here so I'll just go back to my home country and have a better life there..." No. It doesn't work that way. You have your life here, your friends, etc. You also feel (at least in my case, and I'm sure plenty of you feel the same way) that you have to give back to your parents...you have to re-pay them for what they've done. I can't believe people think we should blame our parents when all they did was to try to give us a better life. My parents left everything for my brother and I...and there is no day in which my mom doesn't feel guilty for putting me (my brother is still young so it doesn't affect him) through this.

Being undocumented isn't easy, we all know that...and it affects each and every single one of us in different ways. I'm lucky to say I've never thought about suicide, but it has definitely made me feel like pure crap plenty of times. I'm 22 and still feel like crap. Frustration builds up easily.

Let's not judge him...let's try to let him rest in peace.

What probably killed him wasn't that he was undocumented, it probably was that he didn't have anyone to talk about how he felt.

Whatever happened, is certainly sad. We all have issues and everyone's situation is different. Like some one mentioned, we should all try to be strong and always remember that how others are also affected by our actions. Its really heartbreaking to hear such news, special condolences to his family and friends.

It really disturbs me when people do irrational things like this. I know that being an undocumented is hard but if we look at it compared to living in a third world country or elsewhere, we can see we're a lot better off. Now, I can't speak for everyone who is undocumented, since each case is different. I'm not saying that this isn't tragic (It is, my prayers to the family...), but all I'm saying is to live each life to the fullest and with utmost joy.

No need to wallow in despair all the time friends, our lives were meant for so much more. Don't let anyone take away what little joy we can see and have within our lives.

any one thinking about killing themselves should think that the glass is half full
at least we are in a country where we have access to clean water , 24/7 electricity etc etc.

It's not simply about "thinking", the brain changes due to depression.
