My mother committed suicide in the summer following my graduation from high school. A nephew killed himself just five years ago. The family never recovers. Some feel disgrace, but most try to second guess if they were the reason or failed to be the prevention. I know you and I share a permanent and profound wound.
People who commit suicide always leave a trail of misery for others behind them. I’s generally a very selfish act.
My experience was a long time ago. I was very young and did not know him very well.
