A 21-year-old woman tragically took her own life just hours after sending an “extremely sentimental” last message on WhatsApp in which she admitted to feeling “upset.” Megan Morrey from Liverpool in the UK had seen her ex-partner shortly before committing suicide on August 7 last year, after which she returned home and spent time on FaceTime and WhatsApp before messaging her ex one final time to express her feelings. Her body was later discovered by her mother and sister.
- Megan was described as being always “full of life.” In a statement, Megan’s mom told Liverpool Echo that her daughter was a vibrant, loving woman who had so much to offer the world. “Megan was full of life, always adventurous, a karaoke queen, singing and joking, extremely sentimental. She was so loving, who would do anything for anybody.”
- She left behind two small children. During her life, Megan was a dedicated mother to her two young kids, both of whom will no doubt miss their mother dearly, as will many other people. “Megan was a fantastic mum who idolized her two children and had so many friends,” Megan’s mother said. “Hundreds attended her funeral wearing personalized T-shirts, people were so shocked. It’s just tragic, you just don’t know what is going on in someone’s mind.”
- Megan’s family believe she made a tragic sudden choice. Rather than believing the young woman was regularly suicidal, they think that her severe distress led her to make a rash decision that couldn’t be reversed. “It may have happened in the heat of the moment when the balance of her mind wasn’t quite right,” they said.
- If you need someone to talk to, please reach out. There are a number of organizations in the US and the UK that can help should you feel overwhelmed with no way out. Sometimes just reaching out and expressing how you feel and knowing that there’s someone there on the other end of the line who cares and will listen to you can make all the difference.
