the family never got any kind of contact from the society. Suicide, another problem they are leading the numbers in & burying their heads in the sand with. There are always signs that some-one is thinking of ending their life but if you don't know what they are then it's hard to tell. This religion doesn't allow people to freely express their inner feelings, they are afraid they will be put down/reported on/told they are the problem etc, you get the picture. If you start to struggle your declared spiritually weak, not fit to associate with, abandoned. Can you even begin to imagine what that must be like for a man who is used to being looked up to in a cong. He must have hidden himself for a long time. It is tragic & totally un-necessary.
