My dad committed suicide

How old are you? Have you and your mom and sister talked about any kind of counseling? How are the other people in your family managing things? Do you feel like you can talk about this with your mom and sister in a supportive way?

The feelings and grieveing process can be much more difficult with a suicide death. A lot more confusion, anger, questions come along with the loss.
How old are you? I would recommend therapy for and your family. In the meantime, get your feelings out the best way you can. Art, journaling, poems, reading, writing on here, support groups in your comminuty.
Tell us your age.

Survivors of suicide are one of the most neglected classes in the "therapeutic community." The emotional turmoil one confronts following the suicide of a loved one is comparable to no other. There are few resources capable of dealing effectively with the emotional state that results. I studied in the field of suicidology (what there was of it at the time) and witnessed the growth of an excellent organization called Survivors of Suicide.

These groups are now nationwide and in addition to being composed of those who lost someone through suicide, they have available special counselors trained through the American Association of Suicidology (AAS). The AAS was founded by Dr Ed Schneidman, long recognized as the world's leading authority on suicide.

It's unfortunate this group receives so little media attention but that's consistent with avoidance of all matters related to suicide.

Survivors of Suicide.

This website links to a national directory of SOS support groups. The services are available at no cost in some regions and at very minimal cost in others. Far, far less than you would pay an independent counselor.

I wish you the very best and you have my deepest sympathy.

So did my father I'm 13 I know how it feels in the beginning my dad killed himself about 7 months ago ALAWYS remember that time turns flames to embers I hope you remember today is never to late to be brand new

, My dad hang himself.... we are so traumatized and it appears untrue..

My dad did the same thing on April 10th.... I just don`t understand and it still seem so unreal eventhough my brother and I took care of all the funeral arrangements.

It just doesn`t seem possible... :`(

I hope you will take advantage of the group I cited directly above, Survivors of Suicide.

You are confronting very unique problems and emotions that are understood by few. There is no immediate solution to your pain and grief but contact with the above will allow you to eventually develop an understanding.

I wish you the best.

My dad did the same on June 11. I don't know what i'm feeling. We can all get through this though.
