About this event
March discussion topic: Families Changed - What puts strain on relationships and what helps. The effects of blame, shame, regret and guilt.
You are not alone, there are no set expectations, sometimes being with others with a shared understanding of this form of grief and loss helps more then you may expect.
Come and have a cup of tea /coffee and take the opportunity to:
- Talk with other people who have been bereaved by suicide.
- Share and speak freely.
- Bring some understanding to individual experiences of grief.
- Bring forth expectations that we and others may have that are not helpful in our grief, and how to manage these.
- Acknowledge and share what is helpful.
- Remember your loved one and talk about ways you might like them to continue in your life.
- Talk about grieving in your own unique way.
- Share ways of managing traumatic responses.
- Talk about other things you’d like to that are relevant to losing your loved one to suicide.
- Talk about other things you’d like to that are relevant to losing your loved one to suicide.
