If a tree falls in the forest...

Two days ago my neighbor jumped from the 11th floor of his building and hit a concrete table. He hit so hard he broke the table. He died on impact.

The neighborhood rumor mill is saying he didn't leave any note that anyone knows of, but he was suffering from depression and AIDS. He had been hospitalized recently but nobody was sure why. Apparently, a lot of the people that live in that building are suffering from depression and various other mental disorders.

The neighborhood consensus is that stress just piled up on him and he could not deal with it any longer.

I can't find it anywhere in the newspapers. There was a chopper hanging above the hood for about 20 minutes after it happened, but it didn't make any news programs either.

Just sad.
