Dear Amy: My husband, “Don,” battled addictions. One day, I learned that Don had once again stolen my medication. I became angry with him, said harsh words, and then I asked him to pack his belongings and leave. Instead, that day, he took his own life.
In order to reign in my emotions and anger, I’d like your advice on how best to respond to those questions – whether they’re from people I’ve never met or people with whom I do have a relationship.
I feel a special connection to your story because my own family, like yours, is one of nearly 50,000 American families each year to experience the unique heartbreak of having a family member die by suicide. I do know this – there is no universal experience of grief. I wish there was, because then we might come up with a universal answer for it.My sister Rachel Dickinson has written a beautiful and heartbreaking collection of essays about her own experience in grieving her son’s death. Her unique path through grief led her to some of the most remote parts of the globe – not looking for answers, necessarily, but finding her own way through.
Suicide Awareness Voices of Education has a helpful list of support groups for suicide loss survivors.
