In reply to the discussion: Just Found Out My Niece Committed Suicide [View all]jen63
(813 posts)105. My condolences
to you and your family for your losses. I lost my husband to suicide 19 years ago. It was the most difficult thing I've ever encountered in my life. My son and I talk about him, but most of the time I keep it tucked neatly away in my mind. I don't know if that is healthy, but opening the "box" brings the pain back like the day it happened.
Healing thoughts to you and your family and may your niece rest in peace. No more pain for her. So very sorry.

OMG that is heartbreaking. So many people - younger, older - losing hope in these times.
