There is free information and support out there.
It may be hard to ask for support when there is so much judgement, silence, misunderstanding and stigma around suicide.
Know you deserve all the support you need - when you need it.
Here are some of my favourites..
Free emergency support
Samaritans (non-judgemental, free, 24 hour phone lines and email support): CALL 116 123

At a Loss: A list of grief charities across the world
At a Loss
Books
Books can help us develop a relationship with suicide - a relationship none of us want to develop but one we must do now in order to move on.
They aren't always easy to read and it may feel you are "indulging in your grief" but know this is your critical mind planting negative seeds that aren't true. If you feel books will help, dip in and out as you feel drawn.
Survivors of Bereavement Through Suicide has put together an awesome list of books.
