This review is from: After Suicide: Help for the Bereaved (Paperback)
I feel I am lucky as my only close exposure to suicide has been as a therapist to those who have lost their loved ones through suicide.

The helplesslessness that survivors feel is very often mirrored in those who try to help them through the most difficult periods. A therapist can often assist this process, but we're not there in the middle of the night when the aching and doubts are often strongest. This book can be, and it is set out in such a way that one can open it to any page and find words that help dispell the myths and taboos, words that soothe and heal, words that inspire and motivate, and words that nourish one's sense of self.

I wish I had access to this book years ago. I feel I could then have offered more of my clients a geneuinely practical, sympathetic, and motivating resource.

If you know someone who has lost somebody through suicide, if you have yourself, or if you are a mental health professional working with the traumatically bereaved- I strongly recommend you buy this book.
