Real suicide letters:

A suicide note or death note is a message left behind before a person dies, or intends to die, by suicide.

It is estimated that 25–30% of suicides are accompanied by a note. However, incidence rates may depend on ethnicity, race and cultural differences, and may reach rates as high as 50% in certain demographics.The content can be a plea for absolution or blaming family, friends or society for life's failings. A suicide message can be a written note, an audio message, or a video.

But it was not to be–I am defeated and exhausted physically and emotionally. Try not to grieve. Be glad I am at least free from the miseries and loneliness I have endured for so long.

My mind–always warped and twisted–has reached the point where I can wait no longer–I don’t dare wait longer–until there is the final twist and it snaps and I spend the rest of my life in some state run snake pit. I’ve lived 47 years–there aren’t 47 days I would live over again if I could avoid it. I am going out–and I hope it is out. Imagine God playing a dirty trick on me like another life! Will you see Valerie through college–she is the only one about whom I am concerned as this .38 whispers in my ear.
