This is the season for gun accidents. Deaths spike during the holidays.

1. Also suicides go up during this time of year.

Years ago I lived in an apartment and one morning I heard a pop and found out later that day my neighbor had committed sucide. The officer came to my door to ask me if I heard anything as his wife was in another room and they were investigating if it was a suicide or homicide.

I heard her running down the hall and screaming " what have you done, what have you done"?i'll never forget the anguish in her voice. Turns out they had been had been together for years and he decided to marry her and then he killed himself two days later. He was despondent she said because he hated the holidays.
