Suicide-how do you cope?

My cousin committed suicide . I know how hard it is to accept.

All I can say is that time is the great healer .

My sympathies are with you.

I just wanted to say how sorry I was to read your news. My high school best friend killed hinself and my grandfather also killed himself two years ago this May. It was on Mother's Day that year. i know how hard the questions are and you feel as people are looking at you with some sort of judgement upon your family member. But I have found that as I have been open about it, others were open with me and shared the heartache they have been thru with friends or family members. So, I think that if you talk with those nearest to you, you will find some comfort, not answers, but I find the comfort gets me through. I will remember you and your family as you go thru this very difficult time.

My maternal grandfather committed suicide when I was 2, I have no memories of him. It makes me sad, angry and very worried about his illness being passed down to me or my kids, sometimes.

I wish I had the chance to know him, my Mom says he was a gentle man, heart of gold, but his deamons got the best of him. (He had them all, bi-polar, schizophrenic, manic depressive) saddest part, 4 of his siblings have also committed suicide.

I'm so sorry that you have to go through this and for your loss, I sincerely believe that somehow through God's grace you will be able to come to terms with this in your time, and while you will never forget, hopefully your sadness can give way to good memories. I'll keep your family in my prayers..
