It
followed a series of increasingly dark posts on Tumblr and Twitter
where she talked of suicide, questioned the meaning of her life and said
she was ‘miserable’. She wrote: ‘Life ain’t worth the pain. if you know
or have known what it feels like to want to die every minute second
hour day week month year then you feel me.
‘I
might not struggle financially but I struggle emotionally and mentally
and I think that’s the worst struggle. ‘So in asking why can’t it be my
choice to die now?… I’m miserable. ‘One day I won’t be here anymore and

is another letter that she wrote, we think on Facebook, that out of he
hundreds of her followers got “liked” but didn’t raise the flag for
someone to call her parents or anything before the girl took her own
life.
