If I had a dollar for every time I was acting cheerful around other people while feeling suicidal… I spent most of my childhood and a few years as an adult hiding my depression from others. I don’t doubt that many other people with mental health issues have done the same.

That’s one of the first signs of suicide. He had a plan to end his suffering, which can cause feelings of joy and satisfaction.

I'm no expert. But, he may have been suffering from depression for a long time. Long timers learn to "live with it", and do a good job of the brave face. But there may come a time when that endeavor becomes insurmountable.

It’s deceiving as some people are happiest right before suicide. Wonder is there’s euphoric moments because they’ve already decided to die. Look for long term or sporadic signs of depression and/or helplessness from those you are in contact with. Try to be someone’s advocate!

One of the first things you learn when you grow up depressed is the ability to hide it, even from those closest to you (especially them). We don't want to deal with the constant questions of why we're not ok, or the constant attempts to help fix what can't easily be fixed.
