10 Suicidal Signs in People

It takes a person that has experienced true love to write a compelling romance novel. It takes someone that knows a lot about stocks to write a book about stocks. It takes...Hope you get my drift? The reason I was moved to write this article is because when ever a new suicide case pops up, the people closest to the person that killed himself/herself always say things like, 'Tommy could never kill himself; there has to be some foul play behind this.' 'He was so happy. Why did he kill himself.' 'We didn't see any signs.'



The truth is, there are always signs. No one ups and kills himself without having shown tendencies of doing so before. Sometimes it might be one big damaging event that might make them commit suicide. Or, it might be overwhelming accumulated problems which caused the depression, which later led to suicide. Either case, there are always signs before hand. No matter how subtly the signs might be, they always leave signs along the way. The person might show majority of the signs below, or just one or two signs, but I am positive any suicidal person would show at least one of the 10 signs listed below. If you could recognize them in a friend or family member, you could save a life.










1.  Anger
Someone getting angry over little things is a clear sign that that person is most likely fighting an internal battle. Look deeper, and the person might be depressed and fighting suicidal thoughts.  



2.  They Show Little Enthusiasm to Life
When you notice someone doesn't get enthusiastic about life anymore. Nothing excites him or her, even the things that once excited them.

7 Popular Wrestlers Who Committed Suicide

I have known that most creative people are suicidal, but it was shocking to me when I discovered that a lot pro-wrestlers are also suicidal. A lot of them think of killing themselves, and sadly, some give into the urge. Before I discovered that most part of wrestling is acting, I really saw them as athletes, but I now know better...They really are skilled actors who can fight.


 I am thinking maybe the burden of knowing you are selling a lie to the world is the cause of most wrestlers mental illness, which later lead to them committing suicide. Most of the wrestlers who tragically killed themselves had drug problems.


Below is a list of to popular wrestlers who committed suicide.



 Chris Von Erich
The youngest of the Von Erich boys; Chris committed suicide in 1991. If you grew up in the 80s and watched a lot of television like me, you would definitely know about the Von Erich family. There father, Fritz Von Erich was a wrestler in the 50s/60s, and his sons took after him in the 80s to become big professional wrestlers. Their real surname was Adkisson, but they adopted the Von Erich last name for wrestling.

Chris was the smallest of the Von Erich brothers (Chris, Mike, David, Jerry, and Kevin), and was asthmatic. His bones were not strong and he would often break them while performing wrestling maneuvers. This and other issues led him to a life of drugs. Chris Von Erich shot himself in the head on September 12, 1991, three weeks before his 22nd birthday.
