Suicide....Hard Knowing Thay did it By Their Choice 2 Replies
Suicide is not a choice! It is a desperate last option of someone who feels they can’t take any more pain. I lost my best friend of 20+ years to suicide in 1989, I know the pain and it is hard to…Continue

t is so difficult to find the "right" words. I want to comfort you but don't know what words might be comforting. The one thing I want to do is to send a (((((HUG))))) the second thing I have learned is to talk to someone that cares. Don't bottle it all up and just suffer.
Talking can be a helpful release. Following the death of all ten of his children, as well as some other personal tragedies, the ancient patriarch Job said: “My soul certainly feels a loathing toward my life. I will give vent to [Hebrew, “loose”] my concern about myself. I will speak in the bitterness of my soul!” (Job 1:2, 18, 19; 10:1) Job could no longer restrain his concern. He needed to let it loose; he had to “speak.” Similarly, the English dramatist Shakespeare wrote in Macbeth: “Give sorrow words; the grief that does not speak whispers the o’er-fraught heart and bids it break.”
I will listen anytime you need me to...

Jarod will be gone 4 years on the 20th of this month and it feels like yesterday. Knowing, he choose to take his life makes my healing harder. At least for me. Anyone feel this way?

I found my bc who I shared a 16 month daughter with. He killed himself with .45 handgun in the chest. I loved him very much and finding this body was the worst day I ever had.

I lost my friend on the 23rd of august 2012. It was completely unexpected, he showed no signs of any depression or mental health issues. He was 26 years old and was a happy go lucky type of guy. It was a shock to hear what he had done and I'm still trying to get past the thought that he thought he couldn't turn to anyone. I feel guilty and angry because I couldn't do anything and that he felt that this was his only way out. I just can't seem to think about him and not cry :(

I lost my 33 year olod son on Sept 25th of this year. He killed himself
after his marriage fell apart. He had bipolar disorder which was poorly managed, he overdosed on antifreeze and his medications. How does one ever recover from the loss of a loved on by the use of such horrible means? I cry every day.

"Bluebird,
I believe that every consciousness/spirit/soul is immortal. I, or no one in our limited dimensional world can prove that right or wrong. I can't prove my OBE either. All I can do is share it. Your original post…"
"Joe,
Thank you. I hope with everything in my soul that you are right about that, and I wish I shared your faith in that regard.
If you and I have already discussed this, I apologise for repeating myself (my memory is not what it once was, and my…"
"I saw both of your posts on my profile. If nothing else, maybe rock-climbing and the like will help to distract you for a little while. And you're right, it is absolutely not fair that our beloved partners have died. I know that my husband and…"
"Hope these rituals bring comfort to you, Martee. I have kept the ashes of my husband as well, just don’t want to part with them. It has been more than three years since his death — but I don’t feel like there is a…"

"So sorry for your loss and pain, my soulmate died 1/29/20, been so bad for me to. I don’t let people know too much, no way I want to be taken out of my house. I feel like some people just want to watch me crash and are more nosey than…"
"Joe,
Thank you for your posts. Even though you don't have absolute proof of an afterlife, your out-of-body experience seems to have provided you with some level of surety, which I think is wonderful, and I must admit I'm jealous of you for…"
"Bluebird,
It doesn't make it easier so to speak. What will help is when I allow my doctor to do some imaging, in the weeks or perhaps a couple of months ahead, I'll let him scan me, and since now I know something is spreading…"
"Thanks Ammy. I sometimes feel guilty when I am happy. Yes it takes time. Continued to all."
"I kept my husband’s ashes, I keep them next to me all day, move them to his nightstand at night.
Been 3 weeks..."

"Joe,
I wish I had your faith/assurance that there is an afterlife in which we will be reunited with our loves. I so hope that you are right about that. I think it would make this a tiny bit easier for me if I knew beyond any doubt that my husband…"

"Morgan,
Thank you; I sometimes hesitate to speak (type) the truth of how this is for me, as the last thing I want to do is make it worse for anyone else. At the same time, I know that it helped me to find others online whose truth was similar to…"
"Sorry to see your stories here... There is nothing worse. I will be at 4 years in June. After a while at least for me, the acute pain just became dull pain. I have heard that grief is love turned inside out. No…"
"Thank you bluebird for always encapsulating the horror movie we live in in a way that is gentle but firm. I can only nod my head in agreement with each of the points you made because I am so exhausted by trying to explain this widowing to…"
"Martee, I am so sorry you are also in this hell. I really have no hopeful words to offer; for me, any meaningful life ended when my husband died. I didn't survive, my body just hasn't died yet. There is no joy in life anymore, for me.
That…"
