I speak from experience as my mom unfortunately went down that road. We were absolutely blind sided. The night before she had been talking about how exciting the yakees-redsox games were and how she was excited for different things she had signed up for (mostly volunteer work). For a couple months after her death we recieved phone calls and mail in response to tons of volunteer projects she had inquired about doing or signed up for. She had a trip to hawaii with my father coming up in about 5 weeks. Lots of good stuff to look forward to....
So from my experience i'd say that there are not always signs. We knew she dealt with depression just like half of americans. She took meds and things were fine in that respect for about the past 15 years. Looking back there is not at all that feeling of "oh, i should have known"....Just a greater appreciation for how fragile life is and how important it is to live each day to its fullest.
Okay, thats my sappy thought for the day...back to calling people dipshits and posting pics of *******
