    How unbelievably sad. Twenty years old? Oh, honey, you weren't even fully cooked yet. Not even old enough to know how bad it gets!

    Whatever was eating away at her, may she have found peace.

    I am so saddened reading all these comments about how loved she was. I didn't know who she was until today, but it's just so heartbreaking that she isn't here to see and understand how loved she really was. I'm not articulating this very well. I just wish she could see this outpouring of love and respect - but I guess if knowing you are loved is enough to keep you alive, many people would never kill themselves. Suicide is such a tragedy.

    Rest in peace, Daul.

    This is so incredibly sad. I'll always remember her amazingly quirky/funny/intelligent fashion week video diary:

    Seeing this just brought me to tears. I loved her blog so much. This is truly a shock.

    You're missed Daul. So very missed.

    Jenna, in your experience, was depression a common occurrance in the modelling industry? I'm curious to know if perhaps her career contributed indirectly to her suicide. To be a bit more clear, I mean to say, are there any people looking out for the welfare of these girls or are they totally on their own?

    Fame, beauty, acclaim, attention. It's all so many kids want these days, above everything else. This is a tragedy, but I hope it will at least show that those things can't buy happiness, and that suicide and depression can touch anyone.

    @Sputnik_Sweetheart: Yeah, I did...so, so sad. I was already crying at work because of stupid little things, now I feel horrible for being so emotional over something so petty.

    I can't believe this. She often seemed sad on her blog, but I never would have predicted this. RIP, Daul. Your writing really touched me.

    When I am her age, I want to be inside that picture. Like, everthing about it screams person-I-want-to-be-when-I-grow-up. Punk as fuck. #leonbing

    So one of my besties is getting married next summer and she is going to India to buy all her wedding clothes because it's cheaper. And as her wedding planner/maid-of-honour/MC she's going to bring me back a sari. Now I can tell her what I want! #willsindiafashionweek
