Overcoming tragedy of suicide 

I know how it feels to lose a person through suicide, it never the easiest experience. I’ve lost two brother's to suicide and it had a big impact on my life. No one knows what it truly feels to go through trauma at a young age of 9 when my youngest brother took his life in 1995, they didn't talk about suicide or even get kids therapy to get through their loss instead my mother lied to me didn't tell me until I was sixteen which made me resent the family. She regrets that now. So, I spent years trying to accept my loss instead at the age of 28 my oldest brother took his life by using a gun to his head blowing his brain's and it is no laughing joke. Trust me it was hard. I struggled as my father had a stroke few days before it happened it didn't feel real at all, felt a lot of guilt but we shouldn't be feeling guilty of the person's death as they chose to end their life. So how do we overcome the guilt and sadness? By purely accepting what we can't change yes it be different without the person but how you see the loss play's a role. I learned by using CBT cognitive behavioral therapy to get through the guilt and sadness. I read books that have helped me find acceptance thanks to Gabrielle Bernstein her books has helped me to see the light find acceptance and know I will meet them in the spiritual world. It's never the easiest thing to let go of as it took me over ten years but you can start today by acceptance and knowing it wasn't your fault that they chose to die this way. I hope you truly find peace and remember you not alone in this I know how hard it was to let go and accept what I couldn't change all I could do was keep living life to the best I can each day with the universe by your side through it.

Hope you truly find peace
