Survivors of suicide suffer loss differently
Unlike other forms of loss, Vicencio said survivors of suicide often feel that somehow they should have been able to prevent it. Along with anger, Vicencio said survivors can suffer from feelings of rejection. “We are actually preventing future suicide by helping these people understand what’s going on and by providing support,” she said. Bailey continues to participate in support groups, helping herself and other survivors of suicide. Vicencio said society still attaches a stigma to suicide which means survivors may encounter blame and judgement rather than sympathy and compassion.
