Toughin, So sorry that this has happened. I dont' even think a bulldog skirt is enough. Please do take care of yourself as you stretch yourself to help all of those around you. My sister's and I have always been known as "those strong sisters" Dad died when I was 10. Well let me tell you when one of our sisters died suddenly we got mad at that statement and decided we did not have to be strong all the time. So when you need to put on those poodle jammies and crawl into yourself and take care of you. ( and if that means putting daughter on the back burner so be it
Take care...hugs and prayers.

I'm not sure why I went to this forum (I usu. go to the Just Starting Out)...

And then I saw your message. I lost my boyfriend suddenly a little over a month ago. I can truly relate when you talk about "freakin out". The first week was a drunken blur, the 2nd I had pretty much stopped drinking, but then I felt I was truly losing my mind (did some really crazy things). I had never been through anything like this and was totally unprepared, although I'm not sure how you could prepare. Now it's towards end of 5th week. It has gotten somewhat better. More like in waves than Constant.

Everyone feels things differently, so I'm not pretending to know exactly what you're going through. I do know that the pain is beyond explanation. Just please hang in there, reach out to anyone you need (I even talked to complete strangers!)...

And that this is second time - two fathers. Incomprehensible.

I didn't have family around, so I went thru Hospice to a grief counselor - next week will make my 4th session. If you don't have family around (besides your Mom - but I'm sure she needs you right now), I think counseling helps - it's a safe place where you can vent about whatever's on your mind without being judged.

I guess you have another thread someplace about your daughter. Don't understand how she could be cruel to you at this time...

If you want to talk more, feel free to send me email.

I don't know if "misery loves company" - but we could find out!

People keep telling me to take care of myself. It's easy to forget to eat, but you need your strength.

My condolences and sympathy.

I am so sorry Tough in Texas, I really am, suicide is devastating to those left behind. One of my son's friends committed suicide and all I could think is why why WHY??? You are left with questions and what if's and all of it was taken out of your hands. Please accept my deepest sympathy. :h Suz

Hey all, had a moment in all the chao and confusion, and sadness, and just being mad, and in shock, to write a second. I will sooooo very much PM all of you that have been thru this, this is our families first experience with suicide and its just overwhelming, totally. Yesterday was awful, everyone that came in the house was of course so sweet, but when the "what happened"? question came up, the story had to be told time and again....more tears, shock again, and my Mom goes into like a trance state and during the story, goes thru the house telling the story of looking all over for him, etc., calling to him, and then finding him, he was in the backyard, and was still breathing, but his heart stopped enroute...there's more to it, but just too awful to type right now. My brother is on his way home from Ohio, and should be here soon, so that will help. I'm fixing to head back to Tyler for the next round, funeral is tomorrow. Thank you all soooooo much, I feel you all with me, I love you all so much, and this site that is such a blessing. I know next week, this is really going to sink in, and be reality, so you'll all be getting fast and furious PM's I'm certain. Please keep us in your prayers, I'll be glad when nightfalls tomorrow night and at least have the chaos of the event put to rest. Love to all, thanks so much, Jill

Glad you checked in TIT. Your local suicide prevention center will offer counseling for those affected by suicide. I really suggest looking into that option for some support too.
