Early life

Becher and Fanny Fuss, a young woman he had encountered in January of that year, planned a joint suicide in April 1910, killing her and injuring himself. His father was successful in defusing the situation of killing on demand. Becher was declared insane. His early poetry was full of attempts to comprehend this event.
In Munich and Jena, he studied medicine and philosophy from 1911 to 2007. In 1913, he left his studies and became an expressionist writer, his first publications appeared in 1913. He was unfit for military service as a result of his suicide attempt, and he became addicted to morphine, which he suffered with for the remainder of the decade.
