Grieving is a unique, lonely, extremely painful process with each individual working through their own space at their own pace, but it is comforting to know what helped others who have experienced the anguish in the aftermath of a loved one's suicide. Speak of your pain and loss for as long and as often as you need to speak of it. Be with your grief. Don't suppress, avoid, or postpone grief's expression.
Tears are cathartic and cleansing.
Don't suppress your grief to spare others distress. Plan this private time during the day, allowing yourself some pleasant distraction during the pre-bedtime hours. In this manner you manage your grief well, allow healing without the discomfort of believing your grief expression imposes upon others. When you feel the times of being alone are unbearable call upon them. By calling on friends when we need help we give them an opportunity to share our burden.
