There may also be physical effects from your grief, like loss of appetite, headaches, and trouble sleeping. These are normal. However, watch yourself for signs that you may need some help with your grief.

Signs that you may need help with grief include a dependency on drugs or alcohol, long-lasting periods of depression, excessive busyness, preoccupation with the deceased, violence, or difficulty with routine daily tasks.

Reach out for help and ask for support with grief. Talk to someone you trust or join a support group. Try keeping a journal or scrapbook. Get creative or physically active. Find a way to express your feelings and find hope for the future that works for you.

You will feel many emotions after losing someone from suicide including, but not limited to, confusion and shock; denial; shame; guilt; and anger at yourself, the person you lost or others. Give yourself permission to experience these emotions.

Grief is a natural reaction to death and loss. Suicide is intensely personal, and we may never know the answer to why someone took their life. Be aware that feelings of guilt and shame are frequently associated with a loss from suicide.

Remember that if a person is talking to you about feeling suicidal, they have not fully decided to die. Don’t allow yourself to get lost in the issues that brought them to this point. Actively listen without judgement and reassure them of hope for the future.

Expressing suicidal ideation can be a request for help and is not attention seeking. Don’t minimize the importance of suicidal feelings, even if you are feeling frustrated and resentful. Anyone communicating suicidal thoughts must be taken seriously.

Keep the focus on finding possible resources and supports that might help the person see another way out. Being with and listening to someone can make a significant difference, as they no longer feel alone with their thoughts of suicide.
