Suicide Loss is a Trauma
After a Suicide
It’s important to recognize that losing someone to suicide can be an especially traumatic experience. In
understanding that what you have gone through can be considered a trauma, you can better understand
what your grief journey may look like or the different ways it may impact you. Trauma impacts you
differently than other types of losses, which may help normalize what you are experiencing.

What to know when it comes to suicide loss
Explaining Suicide to Kids
Kids react differently to grief than adults do. We (adults) expect that
they will cry and be stuck in sadness/grief the way adults often are.
Kids process through play. The best thing for them is the opportunity
to be a kid - to play, to watch a favorite movie, read a book, dance
around and cry, or experience whatever other hard feelings they have
