I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my son in March, different circumstances his was a drugs overdose. Why I ask myself, just like you probably do. I also lost my ex husband to suicide in 2020. We did t get on however the shock was still traumatic and the family have no idea why. We always do our best and beat ourselves up so badly of what we could of done different. I haven’t found that answer yet. This site is amazing and has helped me so much, you are not alone, we are all here to help each other. I’m waiting for the inquest, a lengthy process which doesn’t help but I understand the reasons why. I’ve had a crap day today, restless and couldn’t be bothered with anything. Believe me in time you will have a good few hours, I have and never thought it could happen, but then you start to feel guilty. Little steps when you feel ready to do them, there is no set path to follow, be kind to yourself xx

I lost my son just over 2 weeks ago as well, he was just 21, so many why questions, and im not coping with he must have been in so much mental pain and he didn’t tell me. Funeral is next week , i’m not sure how I will get through the day. Much love to you xx
You will find the strength to get through it. I’m a few months ahead of you but all I can say is little steps, be kind yo yourself and do things in your own time. Sending you a big hug
