Is there a section on suicide and talking about that with people? My dad killed himself two days before christmas and I’m really struggling with it at the moment.

Hello @RedRay ,

My partner took his own life on the 27th, I have searched everywhere for help, but as soon as you mention suicide, it’s like people don’t care anymore.
If you find any support please let me know because I am at a loss.
