The primary message of these stories is that the decision to complete suicide is rarely if ever sudden or impulsive and the events which are often identified as motivating factors are more likely to be triggering incidents. These points are underlined by Alan’s account, provided at interview seven years after the event.I know why I’m not going to go through it again but I don’t know why someone else is going through it and I don’t know why people do it but I do know that if somebody said to me that his girlfriend broke up with him and he killed himself well… I don’t think you’re talking spur of the moment. I don’t think you would do it for that reason. Maybe a break-up or something that happened at that moment that’s probably why he says ‘end it, I can’t take anymore’ but I think its gone on for ages before. It’s a sudden decision there and then but I think… Some people I know say a man from around the corner from me killed himself because his girlfriend left him. I don’t believe you can just kill yourself because someone left you. I don’t think he killed himself because she left him. I think he killed himself because he just wasn’t happy and that was the end of it. I remember when I tried I thought about it all the time. I thought about it for months. I thought about it all the time and then one time I said ‘fuck it, I’m going to do it’. It was in me for months.
