Suicide is so hard to understand and leaves such destruction behind. My DIL’s father killed himself a few weeks ago. It is heartbreaking to see the family trying to understand and deal with it! Apparently, he started on a new drug for tremors and three days later, he killed himself. Turns out suicide is one of the side effects of that drug. My DIL wants to “explore” this once she is over the shock and has finished probate. Things he left behind indicate that it was almost a spur-of-the-moment decision...SO sad! His timing couldn’t have been worse either. He did it on the anniversary of my baby grandson’s death and was buried on the day my other grandson’s birthday! That alone indicates he wasn’t thinking normally.
Prayers for you DIL.
I knew quite a few people who were on anti-depressants and killed themselves. Anti-depressants aren’t meant to be given for more than a few months....just to get someone ‘through’ a tragedy. Then GET OFF of them, work though the pain, be strong. Anti-depressants create dependent depressing zombies when on them for more then a few months.
