skins tv tropes & idioms ■ driven to suicide: whatever the reason; (a guilty conscience, the world is simply too much to bear, or self-hatred, whether reasonable or unreasonable) the character may be driven to suicide. this may be as little as pondering their existence or as much as holding a gun to one’s head. in any case this is a powerful way to underscore the desperation of the character.
