If you have recently lost someone to suicide, you might feel the following…
You will cry for perhaps hundreds of days on end. You might suffer severe sleep deprivation or sleep too much.
You may blame a lot of people, become extremely angry and vent on a lot of people.
You will probably be very unhappy with how people treat you in that they will avoid and ignore you as they cannot cope with the situation themselves, especially family who might isolate you as they do themselves.
There will be many unanswered questions.
The relief is, that if you are able to digest what has happened, it will take between three and ten years in my opinion to properly process the gried.
From my perspective we have taken 3 years in general.
Pharmaceutical drugs may help but may cause more trouble as they are only a band aid and can be hard on the body.
Prayer is essential and if you are atheist, meditation its really the same thing.
You have to try to make harmony with the universe.
Use the five senses. Indulge them.
Falling in love or experiencing love from a few core people you trust is of great help
Personally i like traveling to exotic places to take myself out of the situation every so often
Hope that helps
