I really enjoyed watching this show in the beginning, but tape after tape, "reason" after "reason", Hannah just started to annoy me. I think this story romanticizes suicide a lot, because I just don't see any serious signs of depression on Hannah. She hast a few minor troubles that anyone has her age. Hannah blames her colleagues that nobody cared for her and nobody tried to help her or is interested in her, but she doesn't see that other people have problems as well they have to deal with. Hannah blames other people for her decision to take her own life. As the story continues I really hoped that there will come a main reason or some major incident that she couldn't handle, but no there are just some little events. But blaming Clay was the worst of it all. He is too nice. That's it. Just because he is a shy teenage boy, he now feels responsible for her death, which is just awful. Hannah really took a lot of effort in blaming other people for her death but she didn't think she should talk to her parents about her issues or leaving them at least a note. In my opinion Hannah is very egoistic and self centered. She has friends, people who like her, is invited to parties, is attractive, gets a lot of attention from boys... There are a lot of kids who don't have that at all and they try to solve their problems and don't kill themselves.

Highschool is tough. For all of us. For some it's better and for some it's a lot worse. But this story sends the wrong message towards suicide/depression and how to deal with problems. The only likable character in this show is Skye. I hope the ending will be better or at least reveal something interesting.
