SUICIDE SURVIVOR SUPPORT
Connection and Community
Surviving a loved one’s death by suicide is a uniquely painful experience, and survivors need unique support when grieving a suicide.
We strongly encourage anyone who has been impacted by the suicide of a friend, family member, or loved one to seek support, connect with a suicide survivor community, and take advantage of all the suicide survivor resources available to you.
Always remember, You are not responsible for your loved one’s suicide. Not even a little bit. Please be gentle with yourself.Â
