This one is tough. How do you deal with the loss of someone you know or love who died by suicide? I can start by telling you how it made me feel – helpless, scared, angry, abandoned, guilty, etc. I never knew what caused my loved ones to leave me this way, and it is possible I will never know.
My prayer is that this episode will give you some options on how to recover after your loss.

My hope is that everyone is in a safe place and enjoying time with their loved ones.
