shattered heart due to suicide
Posted: 1/22/2006 5:16:14 AM | Dear Opeth,
Tragicly this is far more common than most realize. I lost my delightful 19 y/o son to it 8 years ago.
The first time I became angry after learning was when I realized that I would have to work my proverbial butt off to persevere and come out better for it; I would be ground up otherwise. A few weeks later I was looking at greeting cards and found one that had a translation of the famous Neitsche quote "that which does not kill us, makes us stronger." Inside the card said "Stupid Ssystem, isn't it!"
The are many resources and it is important to avail yourself of them. Do NOT trivialize your loss and needs because you were not closer. I used self-help groups, family counseling and therapists of several stripes.
It is hard to believe but you WILL be better, stronger and happier; but it is work.
