About my Loss:
Although I have struggled with my own loss, my concern right now is for my friend, Ron, who lost his eldest son 2 years ago to suicide. Michael was a vibrant young man, who had a young daughter and a common-law spouse. He had asked some family members what depression felt like, but never did anyone think he would truly contemplate suicide. One day, after an argument, Michael returned to his home to find his girlfriend had left him and taken his daughter with her. Michael did not reach out to anyone...instead he chose to end his life. Ron's life has spiraled out of control since Michael's death. His marriage ended and he barely holds himself together, but tries for his other 3 children and 2 grandchildren. A man who once had mischievous dancing eyes, and who was always the rock everyone leaned on, is now quiet, subdued, sad...a shell of what he once was. Please help me find a way to give him purpose ago...a way for him to cope. Thank you.

For me the only thing that helps is others who have lived it & truly understand. Also- online helps for I dont face to actually face anyone - I can just say it like it is without feeling like an ambulance will pull in. I truly would not be here if I did not have other children. - I struggle to just be... He sounds like me... See if he will come on the site - hand him the web address or pull up the page & just ask him to read some of our stories - If it will help him - he will return....

"Kali I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal. Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
