What It Feels
Like
April’s Story
- “8 Months to Bullycide”
April Himes - 4/27/86
– 2/14/00
“Bullies WILL cause depression
and depression is the
number one cause of suicide.
The signs are there – be aware!”
April's mom, Carol Clinton
I called April out of her room
and told her what I was told. She yelled, "I can't believe you called the
school." She went back in her room and slammed the door. After about
ten minutes she...asked me to repeat what the vice principal had said.
I again repeated what I was told. She was crying...and yelled, "I hate
you."
Those are the last words I
heard from her. |

The Pain of Depression
- What It Feels Like
A person that
takes his/her life by suicide is not thinking of themselves or anyone
else. A depressed and suicidal person is not thinking - the brain is not
functioning well enough to have any real thoughts. There are only feelings.
It's all about emotions. You feel sad, upset, unloved, disparity, hopeless,
helpless, alone, gloomy, weighted down and rejection.
