  • You remember how beautiful and talented she was. You look through photos and remember all of those great memories you had with your beautiful daughter.
  • Such a tragedy. I'd imagine you'd handle it by taking it a day at a time, a minute at a time if necessary. I'd find a support group if possible to be with people who have been through the same thing. I'd also lean on family and friends to help get you through.
  • I think support groups could be of some assistance here. Time heals all things. I'm sure it will take awhile to get there. I'm deeply sorry for your loss.
  • It's hard to lose a family member, especially in this certain situation. I'd imagine at first i'd be closed off from everyone for a little while, feeling lost, maybe even balme myself (even though it's not true). Eventually, though, I would talk to a loved one about it, maybe even get help if it's too much. After some comfort, remembering the good things about her and all the good times with her, I would eventually move on with my life, with her still in mind. I would imagine a amazing girl like her would not want someone to live their life as a tragedy because of what happened.
  • I'm so sorry for you loss. I don't know how I would handle it. It would be horrible.
  • First all let me just say that I am so sorry for your loss. I cannot even imagine. If I were you I would pray for her constantly, I would surround myself with family who also knew and loved her so I could talk about her and remember all those details that endeared her to you. I would talk to her all the time knowing that she can hear you and I would never stop loving her. Finally, I would talk to someone at my church or see a counselor. Take it one day at a time. Take care, OK?
  • It would be very hard. My daughter, I feel is killing herself daily with the drugs. I never know when or if she is going to show up or if a policeman will show up with the bad news. I am sorry if you or you know someone personally who has been through this. It must be heart breaking, as is mine in a different way. They say when something like this happens that only time can mend a broken heart. I believe it gets easier but doesn't ever go away.
  • This kind of thing can be very hard and I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I believe that most people get reincarnated again until they achieve what they are meant to achieve in life. I believe that you will one day be reunited with your daughter, but you might not recognize her right away. You have had many family members in past lives and it will be the same with them too. In the end it all comes together. I honestly believe that she will be fine. I hope this helps.
  • Sweetie, you must realize that she made her choices and you must respect them. You must know that you must live your own life and that she made that choice not because you, and she didn't want you to suffer because of what she did.
  • I don't know. I have no idea. I can only guess at the pain you must feel and would like to let you know how very, very sorry you are having to face this terrible thing.
  • Clinical depression caused by a hormonal imbalance. It's not nearly as rare as some believe. My sincere and deeply felt sorrow for your loss. [ hugs you ]
  • I guess you have to cherish your memories. Everything in life is so hard, especially death. I'm a 28 year old female myself and had a rough ride in life, I've thought often about ending it all through constant heartbreaks etc. I shudder to think about the effects it would have on my family and the pain and misery that would cause. You just have to keep strong, people do it for all sorts of reasons and there is nothing we can say or do to find out the real reason why.
  • i m a very strong believer of god so i think that it is my any examination and my daughter will go to hell because suicide is a sin.
  • I'm so very sorry for your loss. The only thing I can tell you is I'm certain your daughter knew she had your love and that of her brothers and sister. You spoke, also, of her demons. It sounds like that's what brought her to the point she felt she could no longer go on. Take comfort in the fact that she is no longer suffering from those demons, and live your life in a way that you can honor her. Did she have a favorite love or cause? Did she love kids? Maybe you could donate teddy bears to a local children's hospital in her memory? Or, if she loved animals, sponsor pet adoptions at your local humane society. If it was music she was passionate about it, provide a scholarship to a senior in a local college who is planning on studying music (even as little as $250 would help a student buy books). Anything that you can do that is productive and helps your memory live on. Don't shy away from talking about her. Remember her -- what she liked, what she didn't like. That will help you in the grief process. Sometimes people think not talking about a person makes the pain go away. My significant other died almost five years ago, and I still talk about him. Find a support group if you can, where there are other parents dealing with the same emotions.
  • If my child died, i would not want to live anymore. I would just exist ~ somehow ~ until i died.
  • I think most moms think their daughters are beautiful and talented. If they don't something is wrong. In these days and times I would make sure she did kill herself. Did she seem happy? Were there any signs of how depressed she would have had to be? Talk to her friends, find out what they think. Just a note isn't proof. This is what I hope I would be able to do. Don't settle, find out WHY,/If. Things like this don't just happen over night. I know it may sound unfeeling but these things have to be found out now. Better to do now, instead of, I wish I had later. Once again, she needs you to answer WHY. With my deepest, heartfelt sympathy.
  • I don't have a good answer. I can't imagine how much that would hurt. The only thing I know is that your life continues and it is probably important not to stay in that dark place too long. Bless you!
  • You go to a grief support group. www.compassionatefriends.org/surviving-childs-suicide/ To click on the link remove the space after the // https:// thefriendshipbench.org/a-letter-to-parents-surviving-a-childs-suicide/ And you attend individual counseling. Deepest condolences.
  • She obviously wasn't "talented" and beauty is largely irrelevant. The child was not given the correct mental development skills and support she required from her parents. Thus it's the parents fault largely.
  • What a tragedy, I am so sorry for your loss. The Bible describes death as our enemy (1 Cor 15:26). It is the result of mankind's imperfection (Rom 5:12), we were not naturally intended to experience death. We have difficulty coming to terms with and understanding things that originate with Satan. The best way to handle any obstacle is by drawing close to God (Jam 4:8) and He will give you strength and guidance. JW.org has articles on coping with loss that have helped me to understand why people die and who truly is responsible for death and violence.
  • Its terrible to read about your loss. May God give you peace.
  • ask god to help you cope with it and go to support groups with other people that have gone thru the same thing
