Praying for her, which I actually rarely do(I somehow forget by the time I get around to it). I hope this situation turns out okay, because to be honest, when someone posts a goodbye video or tells someone they are going to commit suicide, it is obviously a final attempt to be heard.

Makes me wonder now, how many people aren't heard, and really do go through with something like this. I just got an idea for tomorrow, which I was already thinking about doing, but now I think I will really just ask my youth group if we could pray for anyone in a situation like this(since my youth group saved me from this same thing without knowing it).

Anyways, I hope everything turns out okay.

She mentioned that her brother Michael and her sister Michelle had both died in the past couple of years. I searched for the obituaries for every  combinations of "Michael", "sister Michelle" and "brother Luke" as well as "brother Michael, Michelle and "brother Luke".  Then replaced brother Luke with Kylee and then tried Kaylee.  I can't find any obituaries with any combination I can think of using Michael, Michelle and either Luke or Kylee or Kaylee. Nothing

You Tube has her email address if someone could actually get a hold of them......  I can't even log in to ask the above question.
To move forward is to leave behind that which has become dear. It is a call into the wild, into becoming someone currently unknown to us. For most, it is a call too frightening and too challenging to heed. For some, it is a call to be more than we were capable of being, both now and in the future.

YouTube, if they are on the ball, can pass along the user's IP address, and the police can trace that.  It looks like they made videos at home, so hopefully, the trace is to a residence.

This just sickens me and breaks my heart.  I wish there was something I could do.  I hate the fact that I'm powerless in this situation.  If anyone knows about her contact info, please call the proper authorities.  At least flag it, so youtube will know.  They should have her contact information.

On a side note, I think we as a community should come together and create a strategy on how to help those feeling suicidal in our community.  It seems like it pops up all the time and we need to try something new or perhaps create a new resource.  I don't know, I guess there really isn't much we can do.  I suppose this will always occur, but I wish there was a way we could be more proactive against suicide in our community because I keep seeing this stuff and it breaks my heart. 

According to the comments, they couldn't locate her.  Youtube should have her whereabouts, hopefully.

We have at least one Global Moderator here who has extensive training with suicide prevention and has worked the hotlines.  I hope to get trained someday.  I believe I lost one earlier this year, because I did not know what to do.

This is just horrible I really hope she didn't go through with it. I watched her last video before this one she didn't seem like someone about to take her own life. She was proud of the work she did on her voice over the last two years. I just pray that voice hasn't been forever silenced.

Update, Youtube comment recently posted;

Hello everyone. This is Val, Kaylee's ex.
I am at her house and we have Sheriffs out looking for her. As soon as we have word we will post it.
Thanks everyone for your kind thoughts and words.

I am speechless. The video really hit me. Thankfully a recent update from her ex mentions she is safe and under care now.

QuoteHey everyone.

Kaylee is now safe and under care. I can't give any more info than that. Thank you all again for your kindness.

OK.

Fantastic and good and she will be in safe care.

Thank you for everyone who helped and Shawn you were awesome.

Let us think about this and learn.

Not only that we can be triggered and feel bad VERY quickly, but when we reach that state we don't think too clearly.

So what do we do?

It is in fact VERY RARE that a person who posts a suicide message wants to die. Yes they have gone a step further and have done something but usually they want help.

I will put that more bluntly:
When I have tried to commit suicide I didn't want to die, I just didn't want to be me it/him/thing.

I really wanted to be able to be Cindy, me!

I'm so glad I am.

What did I do?

I gave my phone numbers and email addresses etc to my friends, at that time my only friends were here. To be honest my closest friends are still here.

When I was having a crisis I posted. My friends could call me, talk to me and help me; they had my contacts.

You guys have literally saved my life.

So what do you do?

Many of you have friends on the site, exchange phone numbers so you can call each other - if anyone says or even thinks -- no I can't call my friends because I sound like a guy and they may not like/accept me, I will tear them a new one >:-).

You have no friends?

You have me and the other Global Mods and Admins, if in doubt just contact us, we will keep your stuff safe and if you need help we can get it too you.

There is nothing weak in that, there is no reason to feel you are compromised, you are being strong.

I have listened to a person kill herself while on the phone to me. They are dead I'm not, it haunts me.

Please don't do it.

Thanks for saying this because it needs to be said.

I posted here on Susan's some similar advice on August 11 after a particularly bad day.  That day wasn't the worst time I've gone through, as there was a day when I did my laundry, hung it perfectly, cleaned the entire house, wrote my suicide note, and lined up every pill I could find.  But I finally started messaging and calling some of the girls I knew, and the result is I'm also here today. 

Thank you again for this advice Cindy.  Yeah, we all need to hug.

it's not the end,
Someone who had suicide thouhgt for so long and tried suicide would likely try it again if theres no light.

I dont know her I just watched the video, from what I see it feels like she got alot of lonelyness and need to recover which she been fighting with all by herself. Simple being safe from suicide would not recover her it may just be another tragdy experience. she would need someone there probably some threatment to overcome her lose and it would take time.
