For absolutely no reason that anyone can think of my brother ended his life. He had a really happy marriage and 2 beautiful girls that he adored, no money problems and lived in a beautiful home… i just dont understand why? It doesn’t make sense

Hello @1Dawn ,

I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your siblings. It sounds as though things are very difficult at the moment and you are feeling confused.

I’m sure someone will be along to offer their support, but I wanted to share these links with you to help you with your grief.

You might already be familiar with our other Online Bereavement Support services, but if not, you can find out more about our Online Counselling service, our Grief Coach text support service, and our Grief Guide self-help tools by visiting the link.

Another good place to get specialist support is Survivors of Bereavement by Suicide - http://uk-sobs.org.uk/ 0300 111 5065 and Support After Suicide Partnership http://supportaftersuicide.org.uk/

Take care - keep reaching out,

It is extremely difficult what you and your entirely family is going through, but there are some answers you are never gonna get in life. I have experienced it and been in denial and depression for the longest time for this, you are allowed to experience every emotion and please feel free to reach out in any case, also be with your family or join an offline support group if its possible

Nobody really knows what a person is going through or feeling. He must have been an absolute expert at hiding whatever was making him sad. No matter what our lives look like from the outside, we all have our secrets and something had got so bad, he felt this was the only way out. Like the previous post says, you will probably never find the answer. It is so sad that he was unable to share what was worrying him to such an extent, but he obviously did have his own reason and this wouldn’t have come out of the blue.
I have been close to doing the same, and to everyone else, my life is also perfect. Family, house, holidays, no money worries, the whole shebang. But I lost someone who meant the world to me and in the beginning I could see no way out. Nobody would have known why. I do send my absolute sympathies.
