I found out I had a twin in the worst possible way.

  1. Twins or triples are commonly split up in adoption agencies. Some do it for experiments (what would happen if one twin went to a good home and the other was abused), some do it money. It’s hard to pinpoint the reason why. But it’s extremely common for twins to be split up.

  2. Love all the people in the comments being sooooo sure the parents aren't to blame, as thought abusive family members aren't the cause of at least 50% of s*icides among teenagers. Not saying this is the case here, but I feel like automatically assuming that it's not is a bit naive.

  3. Meet the parents, they are hurting far more than you.

    Sadly the system of adoption has many flaws, I speak as an adoptee, an adopter and a councillor for those with adoption based issues.

    Go and meet them, it'll be tough, probably emotional but maybe hold some healing for all of you.

    And remember there's probably not an hour in any day since your twin brother took his own life that they haven't blamed themselves and asked what could we have done better.

  4. It’s no one‘s fault, including your brother. Depression is a horrible disease. It can strike those you love, and those around you may not know how bad it is. I’m so sorry for your loss. Know that he is in a happier place now.

  5. Many years ago when I was still in school l went into school one morning. The first group of friends I met up with, 1 fainted, one fell to the ground and another fan away screaming " you're dead". Turned out a classmate also called Marion, had been killed in a farming accident the day before. Half the class mistakenly thought it was me.
