Decoded version (trigger warning, it talks about suicide):

> my housemate committed suicide last night :( it’s hard to know why. apparent reason is that he was stressed from working everyday for last 4 years. I guess this a reminder for all of us that we need to look after our mental health and seek help if you are stressed.

I don't feel this is appropriate. For whatever reason, the OP specifically encoded it to bypass text searches of archived pages. Most of the people here can identify and decode base64, or at least OP intended the message for those who could.

I don't understand why OP chose to provide his message this way but I think it's good to respect his wishes here while he's processing the event. He put a certain amount of trust into the community and it's possible that having community members post the plaintext like this would give him additional regret.
