Hi Deborah, 

I am also part of this different thing that it is to be a survivor of suicide.  There are so many things that are so unique to this that you have to grieve on top of the other pain in the loss that at times can be overwhelming.

You really are not alone....

The suicide survivor group link posted by Dianne is a private group on WV to share about the unique challenges of being a survivor of suicide...

 

((HUGS)) to you.  I am truly so so sorry you lost your husband this way.  The guilt and the blame the feelings of abandonment and even shame over losing my spouse this way I found made me feel even more alone in my grief journey.  I am so thankful for groups like this where we can feel more included and more understood and not simply isolated, alone and/or completely misunderstood as we walk this journey...

Hi Deborah.  I too lost my husband to suicide.  Sorry for your loss.  I have those same questions every day...

I wake up with them and go to bed with them.

I am so sorry, Deborah.  We have a couple of groups here that would be good for you to check out: one is Suddenly Widowed and the other is Suicide Survivors. Bless you.
