I will never forget at 7:39 pm on April 6th, 2015. I was sitting in my nursing class and she told us that we could stretch out legs and I felt my cell phone in my pants pocket vibrating continuously.…Continue

I lost my brother to suicide on May 8th 2018, today its been 4 weeks and its been really hard. I miss him and I dont know how to go on without him... I just dont know what to do...
Reading through some of our stories on here, I can only imagine the pain everyone has to go through. 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 years? I am only 3 months into the loss of my wife and I feel like it has been forever. Each day has been a struggle to survive--to not take that final action. I don't know if I have the strength to fight on. I am only 31 years old and not sure if I can live the next 30 years to fight this battle alone. I missed my dear wife greatly. My desk has become a place where my tears have gathered and crystalized. This emptiness, loneliness, hopelessness, and senselessness have taken over me. Wife, come back and take me with you.
Hollowed,
I not only lossed my boyfriend to suicide but I found him after forwards. It haunts me everyday.
A long time family friend was found deceased in the woods surrounding the park where he went to play basketball. The circumstances and the scene leave nothing but questions. He was only in his early 30's and was loved by many. The tragedy is that he felt that he had no friends. No matter if it was murder, suicide or a terrible accident, it is a horrible loss. I hurt so bad for his family. I know that they are now starting this terrible grief journey where only God can help them. I and his family look forward to the promises found in the Holy Scriptures.
(John 5:28, 29) . . .Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice 29 and come out. . .
See you soon my young friend. . .

today i learned that a friend of 30 years took her life this week. I felt shock and helplessness since im 9,000 miles away from the city where we lived
i wont be there for the memorial or the estate sale of her things by her sisters. I feel so remote from the events there.
All i can do is send my emails, and give them my thoughts and feelings
Just wish I could be there now
It has been almost a year and a half since I lost two friends to a long battle with eating disorders, finally culminating in suicide. Although I witnessed a slow decline in the health of both friends, their deaths were not any less devastating. Immediately afterwards I fought with many emotions including shock, denial, disgust, anger, guilt and severe depression. Although those feelings grew less intense, they still plague me. Saint Patricks Day is today; it would have been my best friend Chrisi's 26th birthday, and Christine's is only a couple weeks away as well. This time of year, it feels as if an old wound is reopening and the pain is intense like I just lost Chrisi and Christine. In these times I feel abandoned, and alone. There is so much that I never got to say... It feels like I am stuck in the past. But I know that I can never go back and do things differently, and even if I could, it might not change what happened. You can never go back. You can only go forward.
