Understanding what a friend was going through

[Everything Inside]

Im hoping I've posted this in the right place, im putting it here because Im hoping that anyone who has experienced this or been through it will be able to help me understand an din a sense put my mind at ease.


About a month ago a friend I went to school died, a long story short, all what I had read in the paper and herd from friends about what happened the night before he died etc. just didnt add up.

Last night I seen a friend who is in touch with people and she told me that my friend had been hearing voices,
E.g he went in to work one day and ripped out the air conditioning unit and then said he had to because the voices were coming from it.

There was another incident that happened before he died but i think it is to triggering and unfair on people to read. Its upset me quite a lot because no one really new.

The last thing is it found through a post-mortem that showed he died from drowning, there was no unfit signs or struggle or even alcohol in his system.

Could this have been a suicide to end the stress? and could the voices have been schizophrenia kicking in?

Thank you x

Hey
So sorry to hear you lost a friend.

I wish I were able to tell you 'yup that's what it was' but I can't and no one else can give you a definitive answer either.
People can hear voices for a multitude of reasons, only one being schizophrenia. It could have been suicide too, but again, we can't tell you.

Understandably it's playing on your mind a lot, do you want to talk or vent about the effect it's had on you? I hope you are taking good care of yourself through this..

Thank for your reply.

I know that no one can give me a definite answer, but it pieces things together makes what happened make a lot more sense.

There was a situation where he denied saying things etc. and he had no idea what he was doing which is why I asked about schizophrenia.

I've spoken a lot about it with people so i feel ok with it, I just wasn't satified with what events lead to it until i herd about this, and it now feels as if there is a reason etc. and i feel I have let go a lot more

Thank you again x
