We love you Millissa.

@Waiting For Godot, The mental health system in the ACT has a lot to answer for.

Jesus Wept, this is terrible. My heart goes out to her family and friends.

“No suspicious circumstances”. Still can’t use the S word, can they? Maybe we should stop gilding the lily and ask some hard questions why suicide is so prevalent and why so many people want to sweep it under the carpet as if it isn’t happening. Twice as many people in the ACT committed suicide last year than the number of people who died on the roads.

Poor kid.

I had the privilege of knowing Millissa for nine years and she will always hold a very special place in my heart. May her spirit be at peace and know that she was dearly loved.

What a waste of a beautiful young girl, so sad.

Very, very sad. Thoughts are with the family and friends at this most tragic of times.

That absolutely sucks, without question.
