I feel sick after reading it was suicide. I can't even imagine how her friends and family must feel.

I feel sorry for the family, but there is nothing in this life that would force me to such an act. Man trouble, diseases or even money trouble no siree.

R.i.p Gia. This is really sad.

I think people who suffer from depression can't see a way out of their despair. I am so sad that she was so deep in that pit.

The thing is she was surrounded by people who loved her. I am sure they are second guessing themselves wondering if they could have done something differently. It is just sad all around. I prayer for peace for her love ones as well.

Julien from Jillian's season commited suicide as well, from what I recall. Although, I don't think he was really known by people.

I just recalled that and was about to post about it. I looked him up last night. He left a letter saying he saw no other way out of his depression.

This is so sad. ABC News is reporting it was suicide and one report says she hanged herself. I so feel for her family. Gia was such a beautiful girl, it's so hard to see someone with so much ahead of them find themselves in such desperation.

Here is part of ABC's report

Former "Bachelor" contestant Gia Allemand has died in an apparent suicide.

"While in her residency in New Orleans on Monday night, Ms. Allemand was found by her boyfriend, NBA basketball player Ryan Anderson, following an apparent suicide attempt," her family said in a statement.

Anderson called 911 and Allemand, 29, was taken to University Hospital in New Orleans and put on life support, according to the statement.

"Due to a critical loss of brain and organ function, life support was withdrawn today," the statement continued. "Ms. Allemand passed away peacefully with her mother, boyfriend, and other life-long friends by her side. As a practicing Christian, Gia did receive the sacrament of last rites."

TMZ is saying that things weren't going well with her bf. She was probably so upset about her bad luck with relationships. I sure wish she could have had the strength to endure the pain, because if they were breaking up, she would have been available to meet somebody better for her.

TMZ says she hanged herself. If that is true...oh, Gia! :(
