Can people stop saying its a cowardly act!!
Urgh!! No one has any idea what people think..
Or the situation or past.. It's quick to judge someone.. Jheeze!
Not everyone can be mentally/ emotionally stable..
Clearly she was really depressed and wouldn't be surprised if she thought she was a failure and thought that everything happened was her fault ..
Maybe she even blamed her self for rape.. It seems like her life was going out of control.. Maybe she tried to look forward to the future but people kept putting her down..
We don't know.. It sounds like she was emotionally exhausted and couldn't go on..

Vulnerability to suicide
Many experts believe a number of things determine how vulnerable a person is to suicidal thinking and behaviour. These include:
life history - for example having a traumatic experience during childhood, a history of sexual or physical abuse or a history of parental neglect
mental health - for example developing a serious mental health condition, such as schizophrenia (see below)
lifestyle - for example if you misuse drugs or misuse alcohol
employment - such as poor job security, low levels of job satisfaction or being unemployed
relationships - being socially isolated, being a victim of bullying or having few close relationships
genetics and family history (see below)
In addition to these, a stressful event may push a person 'over the edge', leading to suicidal thinking and behaviour.
It may only take a minor event, such as having an argument with a partner. Or it may take one or more stressful or upsetting events before a person feels suicidal, such as the break-up of a significant relationship, a partner dying or being diagnosed with a terminal illness.
A newer theory about suicide, devised by an American psychologist called Thomas Joiner, states that three main factors can cause someone to turn to suicide. They are:
a perception (usually mistaken) that they are alone in the world and that no one really cares about them
a feeling (again usually mistaken) that they are a burden on others and that people would be better off if they were dead
fearlessness towards pain and death
