This week, one of my oldest and closest friends took his own life. He'd only just turned 40 and had struggled with mental health issues since his teens. I last saw him a few weeks ago and he was spot on, very enthusiastic for the future. He was someone who could never do enough for people, but couldn't see his own worth. He's someone that will be missed more than I can say.
