Bye everyone

bruce

And so that's that. This will doubtless be my last post on the belt, unless I cock up monumentally.

The reason I'm making this post is because I've decided to end it. I have come to the realisation that that the future I face is not one I can bear to live. Ultimately it comes down to the fact that I am both weak and cowardly thus this is the only option. If everything I've felt in the past is to continue into the future then I want no part of this.

You've all been awesome, seriously. You're all great friends and I'm so sorry to have to do this to you but I cannot take it anymore. I wish you all the best of luck and happiness in the future, I really do, just please make better use of it than I did. Don't let it get this bad.

I'm so sorry...

I've notified the Greenwich police department about this.

Please don't freak out, dude, don't do it, come on.

Everyone else. Try to stay calm. Try to get a hold of his friends on facebook or something.

I'm shaking right now, this is not a good situation.

If anyone can find a phone number for his friends or family, call it if you have international calling. Please. This is serious.

Look at his avatar and signature...I'm mad I didn't see this coming. Bruce, you're a great guy, don't go.

Bruce... don't go, man. We still have to have our road trip across America! There's still Uni to complete, more artistic human expression to experience... don't do it, please.

Professor MacJake

Ok, everyone, I got a hold of some of Bruce's friends on Facebook. They've been able to get a hold of him, he's with them now. He's ok for the time being. Keep him in your thoughts all the same.

Voltage

Is he talking, or just logged on to Facebook?

mario

I'm sorry I couldn't get on here sooner. Jeff and Jake have kept me apprised of the situation. Please keep your thoughts and prayers with Bruce. I'll try to get in touch with him as soon as possible.

An update from one of Bruce's friends:

Hi
bruce is on his way to hospital with rosie (politics friend) he has taken some pills, i talked him in to throwing up so most of it should be out of his system.
So he is ok, thanks for the warning, i had to run off to his halls of residence when i got the message so i couldnt contact you.
We have said we will try and keep this on the down low for tomorow, dont mke a big fuss, he is quite embarased as it is.

Hamelin

Okay then, I think it will be prudent to close this thread then for now. I'm going to do so. The mods will post any updates as we find out what's going on.

Professor MacJake

Another update from a friend of Bruce's:

he's being kept in overnight and referred to a specialist tomorrow.

Professor MacJake

Another, very good update about Bruce:

Bruce is stable, going home for christmas, out of hospital and cracking jokes. Despite being ill while at hospital, his bloodwork showed there was very little chemical that got in to his system.
Alls well

bruce

Erm, hey guys.

So yeah, sorry if I scared any of you. I'm back home now, and luckily have no liver damage after taking about 80 different pills. Luckily some friends came to my rescue.

Thanks for all your PMs and such, it really made me feel better...

Silverward

It's good to have you back, Bruce.

NoLonger

Welcome back!!! You're lucky you decided to post first!

X'o'Lore

I've been pretty busy the past few days, and didn't even really catch on to this until it was almost blown over, but it did take the wind out of my sails so to speak when I saw this. It's really nice to know you're alright.

Amoeba Boy

Thank god you're all right, it wouldn't be the same with out you.

Serephel

god

I'm really glad to see that your doing better now.

Behemoth

Welcome back. I'm glad you're ok. That's all that matters.

Mish42

I got so scared when I first read your post. I'm soooo glad you're alright. I got a dizzy spell when I read it, but I was also late into the game and Jake assured me you'd be alright.

Glad to have you back Bruce

Panda

Hate to sound like a broken record but it's truly great to have ya back.
:]

Trireme

I’m glad you’re feeling better. Friends are wonderful.

kukopanki

I can't believe I hadn't read this up until now! At least I got to read the whole story and didn't have to worry too much... I love having you on the Belt Bruce, I have to say.. And I'm not even drunk!

shakeycat

Bruce, I am very happy you are all right, and would have been really upset if you were not. You are part of my life (believe it or not!), as you're part of all of our lives. You affect everyone here, even the people who do not know you too well.

Voltage

shakeycat's right. You're awesome British wit has everyone always chuckling, even people like me that you don't really know. It's great to have you back.

Agentcel

I leave for a few days and you pull this shit?

Pfft, man up.

Good to have you back.

;]

EDIT OF: Let me say a few things.

Jesus, I've known you, Bruce, for what, upwards of 5 years? Golly, it's been a while. You're probably my best buddy on this forum (despite numerous blowjob attempts from Adam). And Ive got to say, you're one of the few "good" people I know. You can't let your dperession get you to such a state...it's really not good. If I was there personally, I would've been right by you the whole time, man. I'm really glad your friends found you...if you died...man, that would have seriously taken a toll on me emotionally (lord knows I can hardly handle a girl rejecting me). I probably would've been changed greatly for the worse. But seriously, you think you're such a fuckup...you're graduated, and made it into Uni...you've got a niece, and you've still got to make your own family...don't mess up that chance of life. You're one of my best friends on the internet, and I love you like a fuckin' brother. Can't believe you actually almost did that...I hope that you continue your life, and see it as more precious than before. Think...you could be getting bum-raped by Satan right now. I'm glad you're still with us. Don't pull this shit again, man. All I wanted to say.

By the way, as soon as I read "end it" in the first post...I was like OH SHIT.

hlavco

You know, it's a really good thing that other people found this thread before I did, because I just read that as an "I'm quitting the forums" post.

Then when I scrolled down and saw that stuff was actually happening, I was like "WHOA."

ReallyCleanSocks

You know, I know I never really say much. At all. Most of my recent posts have been quite belligerent. But when I first saw this thread, I didn't know what to say. I've also been gone for quite some time, so that's why this may seem a little late, but I'm really glad you're back. I always liked whenever you actually bothered to IM me, and you should continue to do that. Because, well, that'd be awesome.

geoko

wow... pop on for the first time in a while for quite a shocker... glad yur okay brucey.

waitingfortheencore

Yeah, seriously... Glad you're ok buddy...
