Understanding Your Suicide Grief: Ten Essential Touchstones for Finding Hope and Healing Your Heart (Understanding Your Grief)

I've read several books on the topic of surviving suicide over the last several months. This book takes you gently by the hand and walks you through many of the thoughts and worries, feelings and concerns common to people who have suffered such a terrible loss. I would highly recommend it (and have) to anyone who has survived the suicide loss of a loved one. I'm already reading it for the second time. The author recommends his companion journal to complete while reading along in the book. Since I bought it on my kindle, I don't have the journal but will probably purchase it to have as I read through the book again.

This book was very helpful when my partner's cousin (who was like her brother) committed suicide. It was a shock to the family and a very difficult time for everyone. I found this book comforting and informative in a time where the world seems difficult and challenging for everyone. Would definitely suggest it for others. Plus, it helps that Dr. Wolfeit is an amazing researcher and forefront leader in understanding suicidality.

I lost my sister to suicide in February. I've looked at a lot of books on the subject and THIS ONE is the Best.

I am using this book to facilitate a grief ssupport groups of those who have lost a loved one through death by suicide, Fantastic and well received by particiapants! Highly recomend!

I found it easier to bury everything I’ve gone through which is probably super unhealthy. Not to say this book couldn’t help someone else.

Very informative book with great explanations behind the authors thoughts. There are some wonderful suggestions throughout the book to help one cope with the devastation and pain resulting from a loss by suicide. Wolfelt would be a great resource for any psychologist/therapist, etc. who needs additional training in counseling those suicide bereaved. From personal experience he knows how deep the pain, and how dangerous the grief can be. I would recommend this book without hesitation -- along with the journal.

For anyone who has lost someone to suicide this book is a great read, it has made me feel as though I am not alone, that my feelings aren't crazy and it doesn't make me cry. I started reading this about a month after my boyfriend took his life and it has been VERY helpful for me. I absolutely recommend it.

If you are unfortunate to be in the circumstance of being bereaved by suicide this is really helpfull.l.

This bookis a great book, written by one of the leading experts in the field of suicide grief. I bought the first copy for myself to see if it was appropriate for her. I found it to be great. Three weeks after giving it to her, she called and just raved about the book. She said it was exactly what she needed to start her on the long road back. I would recommend it to grief counselors or suicide survivors.

Excellant book, giving one better understanding of when you lose some one who ends their life. Personal survivor quotes, and insights. The emotional turnmoil you face when you lose the person close to you, no matter the relationship. The grief of a suicide is so different, complex and a profound heartache.
