    When my young SIL committed suicide, I felt similarly. I couldn't have done anything from a distance and didn't know I needed to do something.

    The answers here are very good.

    We can only control ourselves and sometimes not even that.

    Over time, I have come to accept my powerlessness in what my SIL did. I wasted some time being angry with my ex-husband.

    I have come to realize that there really was nothing any of us could have done.

    I am sorry for your pain.

    Get some help or check out some of the suggested websites. You don't deserve to suffer for something you had no control over.

    One thing I have done since then is insist that my close friends CALL ME FIRST before they do anything in the direction of suicide.

    My arguments are often not rational, but so far, several decades and counting, I haven't lost anyone yet.

    I hope that your heart heals soon or at least eventually.
