Florian was a 20-year-old from Corsica, a gifted third-year medical student with a deep love for learning and for life.

He excelled in his studies, ranking first out of 200 students in his first-year medical school competition. Maths and physics fascinated him. Cinema and skiing brought him joy. Becoming a doctor was his dream, and he worked relentlessly toward it.

Florian was not depressed. He sought medical help only because of abdominal discomfort. He was prescribed paroxetine 20 mg, with Xanax if needed.

Nineteen days later, on February 18, 2021, Florian died by suicide.

The day before, he spent time with friends, did his shopping, and spoke about going skiing with his family. No one noticed anything unusual.

Today, we remember Florian — a beloved son, a loyal friend, and a future doctor whose life ended far too soon.
