My 36 year old son took his life 2 weeks ago and it is devastating to deal with loosing him.
He was a talented photographer and artist and unfortunately depression got too much for him and he ended it all.
I am going to miss him so much and it is a huge loss.

May the warmth and comfort of lovely memories someday take the place of the sadness you feel now.

I know you believe you understood what I said. But what I’m not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Oh Jimbob my heart goes out to you and your family. My son did the same years ago and more recently my sister also found life too much to cope with.
I fully understand the difficulties you will all experience dealing with such a heavy loss and the only things I can say are that you have to allow yourselves to grieve and recall all the happiest memories and let time heal your heartache.
At least there is peace for your son now.
A warm hug.
Sincerely Elvira.

I cannot know how devastating losing a child can be, I can only imagine.
I do understand depression and what it can do, that does not take away from the person who has it, they are still special.
Please accept my condolences, you are in my prayers and thoughts.
Marianne.

b]Jim this is most tragic and sad and I feel for you. Our grandaughter tried to do this but the ambulance got there in time to save her. This depression seems to be spreading and little seems to be done. Jim to you and yours I send my heartfelt sympathies. May time ease your sorrows and the happier times remembered...Charlie.

Jim, I am so sad for u. I lost my twin brother 5yrs ago on the 28thOct. to suicide. He had depression which he'd never suffered from.Very our of character for him. I also suffer bouts of it. If there's a way u can ring me or get in touch I'll b happy to talk to u. It hasn't gotten any easier for me as we were a family of 7, 2 sets of twins and him and I were so close. He was almont 55. Please try and not think too much about it as I used to look at fotos and send myself mad thinking in hindsight we coulda done something. Mackay,Qld is the highest suicide rate., especially young ones. Just the otha day a 44yr old single man, no reason to, committed suidide. very tragic. My thoughts are with you and yor family. Send me an email if u would like to contact me. I'm a good listener. Jane.

Thanks everyone.
I guess their is no answer that will make things any better but I have accepted that, and it is final, nothing will change anything and nothing can now be done and I will have to live with this as time will be the only thing to hopefully get me past it.
I do consider myself lucky to have my wife who is very loving and supportive right now and with her Buddhist beliefs, as they celebrate the life of the person and do not dwell on the sadness of death.
Thanks again , Jim.
