    Being a suicide survivior nevers leaves you. And the case of you ending a temporary problem by using a permanent solutions doesn't apply here. But, to kill yourself because your brother did is NOT "only fitting." It is a terrible way to go. I don't know you, but one thing is for certain... you are too good to let it all go. So, read the words of these people, and mine. In the end, it'll get better.

    Please take time to think about what you are saying! You need to be strong and go on now. It is not your fault what your brother did, he made that decision on his own. Please talk to someone and do not do anything drastic, someone loves you.

    Losing your brother will be the hardest thing in your life. I know. Getting through it will be almost as hard. But living after the loss and dealing with the grief gets easier. I've been doing it for 7 years and sometimes it feels like it happened yesterday and sometimes it feels like it was a lifetime ago but I still dream about him and love him and internally scream at him for what he did and how freaking selfish he was. Your heart will always have that break but it will stitch over time. Please rethink this.

    Please don't cause your family and friends to have to endure more of the pain that you are already suffering through. It was not your fault, your brothers decision, unfortuantely, was a permanent solution to a temporary problem. What ever we are facing right now, will pass and change with TIME. If he could have understood that he would be here today. Don't make the same mistake. Give youself time to get through this. Someone has said 'the only way out of grief is to go through it', give yourself TIME to get on the other side of this. You have someone out there in life who needs you and will love you. God Bless

    Dear Spoogeface:

    I'm so terribly sorry for your loss. I can understand how you feel, since my son committed suicide two years ago, at the age of 20.

    It's ok to feel incredibly sad, even mad for what your brother did. Don't feel bad about your feelings; they're normal.

    Please don't try to do the same. Just imagine the horrible pain he caused to you with his death, and put yourself in the shoes of your family and friends if they lost you too.

    I know it's like there's no reason to live but, please, please talk to someone, call a hot line, or e-mail me at paulinadelrio@yahoo.com. I'll be there for you if you need someone to listen to your tragedy without judging anyone.

    Don't be afraid to ask for help.

    My love and understanding are here for you, and I'm sure there are many other people out there who are concerned about you.

    Hope you'll get in touch with me.

    Paulina (a loving mother)
