I had those horrible thoughts when I was growing up in an LDS home. Funny, when I left LDS when I was 21 my life got perfect. Its tragic that a church has so much power.

The very strongest feeling of guilt is when you suspect you may have prevented suicide by a hug, or a kind word at an appropiate time.

The only answer is, LOVE UNCONDITIONALLY.
And show that love, always.
You never know when you may make a life saving impact on a sensitive person.
