I expected Andy to see me after basketball practice but he didn’t see me and I didn’t understand where he was. Until Rhonda called to tell me that Andy was involved in a car crash. The crash happened because my former boyfriend Andy was drinking and driving with his friends. I found out everyone during the crash was alive except Rob who was the captain of our basketball team. After, the crash I started slowly noticing that Andy was showing signs of withdrawal and depression. In December, Andy and I went to the mall and everything was fine until Andy saw Santa that’s when started feeling withdrawn so he sat on the bench and I had to call his mom to pick both of us up since Andy cannot drive because his license is revoked.

I also have relationship advice for couples or friends which is that you have been understanding compassionate to them but, you have to make sure that they can help themselves too so it doesn’t become a regular thing. The best advice out of all this to understand that drinking and driving can have a much more serious impact than, people make it out to be. Especially when it comes to friends and family.

My feelings towards this whole incident as a whole are shocking and it’s hard for me to understand. Like the fact that “There’s some stuff I don’t understand about this accident like why it happened and why Robbie had to die and why I didn’t die.” Then, after the crash for months I have been noticing many signs of depression in Andy until he committed suicide which got me even more shocked. Due to the fact that both Andy and Rob are dead. After these two incidents, I said to my friends that “They're still dead, and I am afraid I’ll be next. I am just plain scared. (149). Then, the people from Suicide prevention came to the school and it was already too late because Andy was dead. They keep telling us that death is part of life and I told them that my friend Andy didn’t even say goodbye before he killed himself. I said to them “That sounds like somethin’ you got outta a book. That don’t cover how I feel. Andy left without sayin’’ goodbye and I don’t know why.”
