FWIW, it was my impression at the time that sar mentioned such things from time to time and would be suicidal one day followed by better spirits the next--there was a lot of change in her mood and it was hard to predict. She was on the edge there for a long while. Sometimes it seemed she acted on the urges when under the influence and afterward her mood would be a little more upbeat. But it was hard to get a read on where she was at any given moment, I felt.
I agree with the others that it is natural to feel guilty. I felt it too.
But it doesn't seem to me that you could have done anything to prevent sar's death.
