    And perhaps it's high time for a reminder, that no matter what you're going through, it can and WILL get better!

    Talk to someone before you do something rash, something final. Kitrax will NEVER be able to post on these boards again, or find a new girl to replace his ex. He'll never be able to take it back.

    Talk to someone. If you don't have anyone, there are a lot of folks on these message boards who would gladly take the time. Heck, sometimes it's easier sharing with someone who you don't know in person.

    There's ALWAYS a way out. Sometimes all it takes is a new sunrise.

    Saw that today would have been Kit's birthday. Spiraled back down this thread as a result.

    Still sad.

    Yes indeed. Still hard to believe given what he seemed to have going for him.

    [​IMG] Wow, I know that I became a somewhat infrequent visitor here after I joined the military but I can't believe that I missed this. Kitrax was one of my favorite posters here and I'm really sad to find that he's gone. If only he had seen how much people cared for him....it's quite impressive for an internet community to even make such an attempt to help somebody out.

    RIP Kitrax

    Yeah, I still think about him. I remember his jokes that made me laugh and his rants on Utah drivers... RIP man!

    I was in a catholic church today. You can burn candles for someone so I lighted one for him. I know he is a bad boy for how he went, but still.

    I'm only just seeing this for the first time now. I am stunned... I guess I always assumed that if I ever came back here it would be just like it always was, but this is bringing that thought crashing back down to reality. Life really is too short, it's not something we should ever take for granted. Unfortunately this is something I've come to truly appreciate over the last fee months.

    I hope you're in a better place, Kit. I'll be saying a prayer for you tonight.

    Seeing this bumped, I read through it again. It really is so saddening to see someone so unhappy that they are prepared to take their own life.

    Again, RIP Kit.

    It is strange, but for some reason I now always remember November 1st as the day Kitrix died. Reading this thread is always very eerie to me.

    I can't believe it's been 2 years. I still remember what I was doing when he posted that first message :(

    I personally did not knew Kitrax, but I knew him through the old friend that initially got me interested in this board, and from what I was told, he was an all-around great guy, and a devastating loss to the community. A friend of a friend is my friend... peace to your soul, man.

    ...

    well, ****.

    I just spent the last hour catching up on this thread and crying my eyes out.

    I really feel like a schmuck for drifting away...only to pop back for a moment in August of that year.

    Yeah, 'what ifs' are running through my head; they'll pass once I come to terms with this.

    Aaron, I wish this hadn't happened, but I hope that whatever has come next for you is better and makes you happy and fulfilled, because you truly deserve it.

    Goodbye, dear friend. It won't be as much fun without you.



    Oh, and what this community did in light of things?

    THANK YOU. You all rawk to the extreme. [​IMG]
