I'm so sorry hun!
Can't say much other than that I'm thinking about you and your family.
I have been through the same (a friend of mine aged 20 years at the time) so I know how horrible and tragic it is.

thats so sad, i dont understand how anyone can do it when they have kids, she must have reached a really desperate point...
do they have any idea at all what her reasons may have been?
Where is your poor brother? (is it your brother?) i hope hes got somewhere with a lot of support he can go??

OMG Annie I'm so sorry to hear of your loss, I don't know what to say ...as I've never dealt with this kind of thing before
Big HUGS I don't understand how people can take their own lives, like you said - especially when they have children.
Will be thinking of you & your family, stay strong for your brother - hopefully you both have a lot of support at a time like this

What a truely sad situation especially for her wee little girl. You do wonder what it was that made her feel helpless enough to resort to suicide, especially when it sounds like there were so many people that cared about her.
Hugs to you all

I wish I could think of something comforting to say Annie, words seem so useless in situations like this.
My heart goes out to you and everyone affected by it, I'm crying just thinking about how what you all must be going through.
Sending you all lots of love and prayers xxx

Annie - first of you HUGE HUG - I am so sorry to hear you are having to cope with this.
Suicide is such a thoughtless thing to do - I have had several people around me do it, including an exes ex wife, and a friends husband - one had tried so many times before succeeding, and the other did it to punish a cheatng partner --which backfired cause it left her a widow and free to remarry straight away which the heartless wench did. Sorry!
There will be reasons you may never even know about and this may not be the first time she has tried. It is just so sad that she succeeded - esp leaving a child behind who deserved to have its mother in its life. Noone understands that.
Be there for your brother....make sure he knows that this is a huge loss BUT life goes on and the effect of this loss is minimal in the scheme of things...you need to make sure that if he is contemplating doing similar that he understands it wont affect the world etc and also try and get him some help too so he can be helped to stay here.
is it his baby? the poor bubba....that is so sad.
Again BIG HUGS

Unfortunatly sometimes it is - no matter how hard you try and help them or how hard they help themselves.
Annie, I really feel for you and for your family. I recently lost my best friend to suicide - he was only 18 years old. I lost a cousin to it who had 2 small children and my friends uncle who we were all close to as kids. Your SIL will have her reasons for doing what she's done, which will need to be respected. This is gonna be a REAL hard time for you guys, if you need a chat or whatever, please PM me - I'm happy to share my experiences if they'll help you :)
Just try and be there for your brother - if he wants to talk about it, let him, and if he doesnt, then dont force him to :)

Oh god, how awful. I'm so so sorry for your brother, and for her little one, how horrific for them.
As someone who's worked around youth suicide a fair bit, I suppose the only understanding I can pass on would be that sometimes depression affects people so much that they literally cannot see that they have other options, and honestly believe that loved ones would be better off without them.
I really hope your brother is ok, I'd honestly suggest he gets some counselling. I witnessed a suicide attempt a few years ago, and didn't take it well, and ended up in therapy for a couple of months. Therapy was incredibly helpful for processing the experience, because honestly, it's not one we're automatically equipped to deal with.

Yeah definitely sort out some counselling for your brother. I too have witnessed attempts on many occassions(with the person I mentioned in the other thread) thank goodness that they've come out the other end and now they are like a totally different person. Sometimes we never know why some people choose to take their own lives..depression can be such a deceptive thing. On the outside they put on such a brave front yet inside they feel nothing but darkness and see no end to it. Be strong, you're family will come through this.
