Cobain's suicide note looks partially forged.He breaks his rambling about nothing to actually make clear that this is a suicide note.There was only a short footnote to Courtney and his daughter Frances and the handwriting contained in the note.This note was clearly written to Cobain's fans telling them he was quitting the music business.

People claim that Nirvana “saved their life”, many people across the world have came forward, so when Kurt died everyone was so confused based on how his lyrics in his songs pretty much told a story of how he was getting over depression and described what he had gone through. For example the quote “If you die you're completely happy and your soul somewhere lives on. I'm not afraid of dying. Total peace after death, becoming someone else is the best hope I've got” is basically saying he's going to live life to the fullest until his time comes. A total of 68 people committed suicide with notes of how it was because of Kurt

    It couldn’t be a suicide because there were two shots and he could’ve died from only one shot with the gun he used.

That was not the case because the Seattle Police Department said it could’ve been self-inflicted but maybe just maybe they’re just hiding the truth from the public and the beloved fans of Nirvana.…

    There is a difference between Physician-Assisted suicide and euthanasia. Physician-assisted suicide is different from euthanasia because patients are voluntarily killing themselves at their own pace by drugs that they requested from physicians. According to Comfort Care Choices (2010) “Physician-Assisted Suicide is where patients with a terminal diagnosis (life-limiting disease) formally request a prescription for a fatal dose of a drug which they can administer to themselves at a time of their choosing.” Euthanasia is different from physician-assisted suicide because patients are not using drugs from physicians to kill themselves. Rather, euthanasia involves killing patients by using drugs.…
