“A Unique Grief” (Mettie)

969 Views April 18, 2017 Be first to comment

“A Unique Grief” (Mettie) Pin It
 Mettie shares her story of loss to suicide, and the ways in which that grief is different from others.

 “I believed really in  my core that if you lose one loved one to suicide, you’re kind of done.”
“In my opinion and in my experience, suicide isn’t a choice; it’s what happens when pain exceeds resources for coping with pain.”
