There was a woman who visited here not too long ago who posted about her experience of her mother committing suicide. To say the least, it sounded EXTREMELY traumatic. Do a little search, I think.her name.was Goldie.
Just wanted to add: neither of my parents ever committed, although my dad attempted often. He still might still think about doing it sometimes. I don’t live with him, so I’m not sure. But his life has been rough, he’s been a depressive since he was a child, and he believes that medication is government mind control, so he doesn’t seek help.
My aunt, uncle, and other aunt also have some history of attempts. I seem to come from a long line of not-wanting-to-be-here.
My uncle did. But my parents hid that from me when I was a child. My next door neighbor and best friend growing up > his mom killed herself and my friend and the whole family was devastated. he was a very unhappy person.
My father did, just over 8 years ago, with a fire arm. I’m an only child with no real close family ties, and so it’s always been hard dealing with it. Oddly enough, the last couple of years have been the hardest, but I guess that’s because have been avoiding it, or convincing myself I was fine. All that’s sorely fallen apart recently. Though, I don’t know, everyone reacts to death differently. When life is falling apart, my father’s suicide compounds the distress I guess.
Thank you for your condolences. Everyone carries a great burden of some type. At times I can get carried away and overwhelmed by my own particular situation. But when am in a more grounded headspace, I can see that we’re all struggling with something, and in that way we are all connected, wether we act like it or not.

Yeah, I read her story. I recall it vividly. She was in her 20’s I believe.
I remember that post. That made me second guess my plans, to say the least. Holy smokes that was heartbreaking.

Did yours? I’m sorry for anyone who lost there parents in a tramatic way.
My aunt did. My cousin never really got over it.

My cousin also killed himself a year later.. And therein lies a facet of how difficult it is to deal with, the examples set by their actions.
I am sorry about your losses. That must be rough.

I have never had a relative commit suicide that I know of. There is a very small chance that one of them might have been, but it’s not real likely.
Btw, I made a post for you.
I seen your post mysterious. It was a cute gesture. Sorry I didn’t comment on it.
Neither of my parents committed. My dad died of cancer last year.
Sorry about your dad.
(I was just being silly with that video)
