Survivor? Loss and dateBrother Glen/ Jan 25th 2007
Interested in our SR2H Survivors Newsletter?Yes
MessageMy brother Glen took his own life just one day after my daughters 17th birthday and the year she was graduating from high school.I still ask myself why THAT DAY ? But in reality I want to know why,if it would of been any other day ! The months of Nov Dec and Jan are the hardest. Its Glens birthday in NOV and then we have to deal with the holidays and then immediatly after that the anniversary date of the suicide. Last year was the first anniversary . January was by far the hardest month to endure. You RELIVE every day leading up to that tragic evening and reconstruct how you could of done things differently to change the course or events. I feel like if I grieve long and hard enough that I can some how bring him back. I know in my mind thats impossible but your heart wont allow you to accept certain things.I think that is the hardest thing for nonsurvivors to understand.That there is a long road to travel before you allow your heart to surrender and accept the things that your rational mind knows.I am so thankful for this website. It has given me the strength to confront and address my true feelings about my loss and endure the work I HAVE to put into this journey in order to heal and reclaim my life.I think of all the survivors and pray that we all have the strength and resolve to work thru this.I am learning to just take 1 day at a time because its too painful to imagine the rest of my life without him otherwise.

Survivor? Loss and dateHusband 05-13-2007

MessageIt's been a year and a half and I still miss Dean. It just doesn't seem real at times. I was suicidal at first. I have turned to God and surrendered my life to Him. Jesus is my great comforter. I am doing much better than I was in the beginning, but I still have those times when I feel like my whole world is crashing down on me. I have learned to laugh again - most of the time I no longer feel guilty when it happens. There are no survivor groups in my area. I work with someone who lost their husband by suicide. She has been helpful when I really need to talk. God bless everyone who has to go through the pain of suicide. Remember, faith in the Lord and lots and lots of prayer will help you through. You have to go through this - you can't ignore and hope it goes away.

Survivor? Loss and dateyes July or August 2008
Interested in our SR2H Survivors Newsletter?yes
MessageMy ex-husband lost his fight with alcohol addiction this summer. You will notice that there is no speific date. The investigator and funeral home used the date they found him, August 22,2008. The last time I talked to him was July 18 and it was shortly after that he did it. I had finally stepped away from him like so many people and counselors told me I should because I wasn't doing him any good by hanging on and checking on him. I didn't tell him that I loved him and I didn't understand what he meant because he had said it before and had made me understand it as something different. I didn't know this time it was different. The officer that was with me didn't pick up on anything because he was in his car on his cell phone talking. He rolled down the window and told me to move things along as he had something else to do. I couldn't talk to my ex anymore, I had to leave. I should have gone back but I did what he had wanted me to do all along and leave him alone. I now have to raise our four year old son alone. How could he think our lives would be better without him. I love him and miss him, he was my soulmate. I am lost and so lonely without him. Our son misses him so much and I can't take away the pain of losing his father. I don't know how I will make it without him.

Survivor? Loss and date11-11-08
MessageI'm 15 years old. About eight months ago my Uncle commited suicide. I have worn black every Thursday since. One of my best friends just commited suicide on Tuesday. She sent me and a few of my other friends good bye e-mails, she sent mine at 3 am. Her viewing was today and her funeral will be held tomorrow. She was a very dear friend to me. I don't know what I would have done with out her in Middle School. I still can't believe that they are both gone....

I love them with all of my heart!

Survivor? Loss and dateI lost my mom on 6-17-08

MessageI lost my mom to suicide on 6-17-08.

I'm really having a hard time with her death, for I have all the unanswered questions. Feelings of sadness,greif,guilt,disbeleif,hurt,anger etc.

My mom was my best friend. We were more like sisters. She had suffered from years of chronic pain and depression as well. My brother was murdered in 1986, at the age of 26. This is when my mom started going down hill. She was once a healthy,happy, and vibrant person. But, her health, physically and mentally slowly worsened with time.
I miss her so much, and I'm dreading the approaching holidays that are coming soon.

She died by drug overdose. Several different drugs were found in her system.

I had just visited with her on Friday, before she took her life on Saturday. I feel alot of guilt and anger for not knowing what she was about to do. Our visit as nice, as I started to leave, she gave me a hug, but this hug was different for she kept holding me and would not let go for some time. How did I miss this? How could I not be aware that she was having suicidal thoughts? Why didn't I do something, anything!

What's left of our small family will never be the same. It's just myself and my sister now, and our children. I don't know what I would do without them right now.

Some days I am a total mess and some days I do manage to get through the day. The memories are all I have left now. I do have some precious memories that I will cherish forever.

Sincerely, Annette

Survivor? Loss and datemy son-in-law 7/23/08
Interested in our SR2H Survivors Newsletter?yes
MessageMy son-in-law committed suicide in front of my 24 year old daughter. He said her name before putting that shotgun in his mouth and blew his head off. I am so angry. My daughter is being blamed by his friends and his family. I cannot tell her that i know what she is going through, because that is a lie. Nobody but another survivor can understand what it is like day after day remembering. There is no answer. It was selfish on his part. I keep thinking that it could have been worse. He could have took her life then shot himself. I loved him so much as a son, but looking with disappointment at the way things turned out. His choice to take his life was a sudden solution to a small problem, but my daughter is living a thousand deaths everyday. It is so not fair.
God be with you survivors, I know it isn't easy. But there is life after suicide.
