Articles: Our Friend Dolorosa |
Posted by
MorteAscendo on Tuesday, June 11, 2002 - 10:13 AM PST
As most of you know Dolorosa is my best friend here on Okinawa. Now I am the bearer of bad news: Dolo on Saturday night snapped and tried to kill himself. He jumped into the ocean and started to asperate sea water. He was found by a miracle by a friend and was taken to the ER. When I found this out I was calling all around the hospital looking for him till about 4 in the morning, when he finally got tucked into bed in the Psych-Ward here in the hospital.
Right now he is doing fine and hopefully soon will be released. But you all know as well as I do he probably wont be the same smart-ass Dolo we all know and love.
He has been on this site for at least a year and most of the fanatics here know him. I think that he has been a real big part of this site with his storys, comments and what not. If any of you would like to send a card or anything to show he has at least more friends then me, you can get a hold of me at my home e-mail and I can give you my address here in Okinawa: corpsmanwix@aol.com
or proloab@oki10.navy.med.mil
If anyone is interested just give me a message. So there we have it. But just to reiterate he is doing fine, and is getting help from me and professionals. I have seen him everyday and brought him shit that he needed. So please to boost his morale, just give a hoot!! Thanks all.
-Morte

*takes deep breath* I have tried to kill myself once too many years ago...And if Dolorosa wants to talk about it, please feel free to mail me. It's whole lot easier talk about things like these to strangers, and I know it...but keep the flag high!

Re: Dammit... by Schizo on Jun 12, 2002 - 06:16 AM (User info | Send a Message) | It's OK, Dolo. We understand. And aren't we all a bunch of frickin' hypocrites at times, anyway?
You know, it may get better after this. I know that I was borderline suicidal for pretty much all of my teenage years, then when I was 19 I actually tried it (tried to break through the ice on a nearby swamp), and after that it seemed to get out of my system. I still had to struggle with depression for a while, but it broke something and things got better soon.
You have all my sympathy! What you're going through is really tough, and no one looks down on you for going crazy for a bit. We all go crazy sometimes under pressure. Just hang in there - we don't want to lose you! |

Re: Re: Re: Dammit... by Xaoswolf (Xaoswolf@hotmail.com) on Jun 12, 2002 - 08:04 AM (User info | Send a Message) http://Xaoswolf.tripod.com | At scout camp, the people in the front of the group used to try to break the ice when we crossed the stream/river. It was never more than knee deep, so drowning wasn't really the object of the game, just making the people in the back finish the last mile soaking wet in sub zero temporators. |

This will probably be mis-interpreted by everyone but him... I find myself upset by his lack of survival instinct... I am concerned, but for reasons different than everyone else's

Re: Re: Our Friend Dolorosa by ComteStGermain on Jun 13, 2002 - 09:35 AM (User info | Send a Message) | Your concern concerns me, and my reasons are different from mine own. Shall I misinterpret your message now, or would that be a misinterpretation of your intended interpretation? |

I think it's already been said, but why not say it again? We all go crazy, but the important thing is that Delorosa didn't succeed. What would I have that's interesting to read here, then? Other people's articles? Bah.....

Pretending to be Jesus...just didn't work.

I have limited access right now, and I'm sure I'll fill you all in on the details later...but thanks. And I apologize for my lack of commitment to life. I'm working on it now though...
On a side note...drowning is a very unpleasant feeling. I don't think I want to do it again. I'm also out of the Navy. Going back home to central Cali. I'm going to restart and rework...but fuck it, I'll still wear my fishnets.
Feral, I'm not gonna' sling Judgement...but I am curious as to what you mean.
Sorry for the melodrama guys...

Dolo, I'm glad to hear you are okay.
Sometimes it, what we consider irrational behavior, occurs in a moment of not so clear clarity, let's call it opaque-ity....and tho you regret it in retrospect, you meant it at the time and it's a scary thought. Not all failed suicides are calls for help or attention, they are just that..unsuccessful suicides...and I don't think you're an attention whore (other than all that pantsless talk you wierdo) and nobody else better say that either...I'm drunk and I'm mean and I'm TERRIBLY agressive to insensitive dolts...*snarl~urp*.
I hope you're getting the help you need, and from the looks of it you're getting the support you need.
I also hope some of this made sense...hey, I'm a puss, and the beer is kicking in...both of thm...a lot ...fuck..where's the spelllchiek*snicker*
If you recieve legal reprcussions (most states I"ve heard have this retarded law that states suicide is illegal.*shurg*( you can always just tell them you were trying to score a date with a mermaid.
It works, I've heard stories.....

Freaking manatees...heh heh. SO far they haven't thrown me in the brig, and pretty soon I think I'll write up an account of what happened. Just to get it out of my system. Regardless...I'm bound for San Diego in a little while...then Central Cali and God knows where else...time to start living again.
