Apparently there has been a girl who committed suicide over twitter because of bullying. If this is true then that's two deaths within two months by suicide and both because of bullying.


RIPSophie? Has Twitter user Sophie Sykes committed the first tweeted suicide?


Has Twitter just witnessed its first tweeted suicide? That’s the pretty awful possibility raised by the case of a user named Sophie Sykes, whose tweets this evening (http://twitter.com/#!/JaythanILoveYou) suggest she jumped from somewhere.About five hours ago, Sykes tweeted “I’m right by the edge” and then “I’m gonna fall”. She hasn’t tweeted since. There doesn’t seem to have been any independent confirmation of her fate, and many people are – quite rightly – pretty suspicious aand sceptical (see comments section below). But reading her recent timeline, it’s pretty chilling.Many people are already suggesting that Sykes killed herself because of bullying. The full story, if there is one, will likely take time to come out. Sykes seems to be a fan of band The Wanted. Some people seem to be convinced that the whole thing is a hoax. The creepy thing about Twitter is, there’s no way of telling for sure.

Not really news worthy, she's just an attention seeker,especially considering she's tweeting right now...

I'm pretty sure there'll be more than 2 deaths in 2 months from bullying, they just publicise certain cases...

1) Attention seeker
2) There seems to be a trend that people who commit, or try/fake it, seem to be addicted to a bang or musician.

Inseriousity.

1) BEST TYPO EVER LOLOL
2) yeah there's a lot of attention seeking fake suicides on the internet of people coming back from the dead or "relatives" coming online and somehow knowing who's who!

what a ******* mug. i hate these kind of bizarre teenagers who think it's clever to top themselves and then blame it on someone else. attention seeking. there are real people with real mental health problems who need help, not some silly little girl who's trying to start something on twitter.

If breathing makes you alive then yes, but not if you need a life to be alive.

For people who are claiming that 'attention seeking' is negative in this situation...wth?

Suicide/Attempting suicide is the last resort for a severely neglected and depressed person - yes she didn't jump - but still, she clearly wanted someone to say that she was loved by at least someone in the world. Also, you have no idea what emotions that person is portraying irl... it's through a computer.

An example would be some middle-eastern man (idk his name) who committed suicide live on webcam... I'd hardly call that attention seeking? He genuinely died and considering the internet is full of 1000's of ****heads and trolls, out of thousands of people who watched his live suicide... it took 4 hours for someone to actually call the emergency services, everyone else was laughing.

Now don't retaliate by saying 'how the **** would you know'? Well, I've attempted suicide 3 times - mine weren't for attention seeking and on 1 of those occasions I did 'search' for help online... and what did I get? Aload of ****s who took the piss outta me.

Think before you speak. And bravo to this girl for actually not 'jumping'.

Hmm. It's a shame she had to lie about it but idk, some people do lie because they don't think they're going to get attention if they don't.

I wonder how old this girl is. If I were her, I'd delete the account and start fresh. :s
