The Leftover Pieces; Suicide Loss Conversations

What has Helped Me the Most after Suicide Loss?; Part 3 Time & Self Care


Listen Later

Today I go "down the rabbit hole" for Part 3 in a 3 part series called "What has helped me the most" (after the loss of my son by suicide). I know that I have talked about these topics before - and I will again - because we need to hear them often, to be reminded - to be empowered - to SURVIVE!

The first Part 1 (Ep 2 Season 3) addressed Community and Support. Part 2 was about Tools & Practices.  These topics are the cornerstones for survival, hope, and (eventually) healing in this life after suicide loss. Please do respond if you would like to add to these or have any input that I might include.

Today in the final part - part 3, I talk about 'Time & Self Care' and as I say in this episode, they are both relative AND relevant in this life after loss. Time can feel like it stands still and flies by all at once. Self-care is both necessary and yet often completely evades us. I hope to offer some insight and maybe some ideas that will help you in your own journey to rebuild after your loss by suicide.

I have included a few links, one of which takes you to the signing up space to get started in our very own "Picking up the Pieces" Community. It's in the beginning phases so I hope you will consider getting involved now and help to make it exactly what you need!
