Suicide is Hard
Twenty five years ago, my family experienced a suicide. We have never been the same. I miss how we were.

My mum committed suicide 22years ago.
You are absolutely right. The affects go on and on.
We cannot go back to change anything. Only forward.
Sending all good wishes to you.
Christina.
It must be so hard.
An uncle did that, I just moved on..
My uncle's suicide pretty much ruined my father, who could never come to terms with the loss of his beloved brother. As a pre-teen who was the first to find my uncle's dead body (pistol fired into his mouth), the experience affected me in ways that I didn't realize until many years afterward. Anyone who is reading this and thinking about suicide, DON'T DO IT. Suicide is a permanent response to an impermanent situation in your life. There is ALWAYS a better option. If you can't talk to anybody in your life, call the National Suicide Prevention Hotline: 1-800-273-8255
Thank you, Pat. I had meant to post the hotline number as well, but did not.
Yes.... there is ALWAYS a better option, rather than suicide.
