My brother, my friend

Just buried my brother on April 1. I lost my best friend, my protector, and older brother to suicide. I swear I can still hear him walk through my house and call my name. There is not a day that has gone by that I don’t cry. My birthday was 4 days later; it was the second worst day of my life. I am 33 – my brother would be 37 in July. Is this pain going to ease? I’m lost without my friend. I’m confused – why? Why did he have to come to my house and shoot himself in my driveway? We have always been so close…why would he do this to me?

  1. I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my older and only brother to suicide March 12th. Currently feeling your pain too. I wish there was a way to help deal with this pain. To make it better. It is hard for me to form words lately, I just seems that I am lost and confused. I just found this website and hope that we can help each other out.
