People don’t just stop existing. Although suicide may take away the presence of a human being, it doesn’t erase their history. The ones left behind are destroyed and left trying to pick up the pieces in the aftermath of suicide. Suicide leaves the world blaming themselves for a death no one saw coming. Blame aimed at answering the question: why? At any age, at any time, it can happen unexpectedly and that makes it so much more painful. The worst part about suicide is it takes away the possibilities yet to come.
The aftermath of suicide is drawn out because it has no end. Little reminders go by and bring back the memories of someone who no longer is there.
You are questioning every move, wondering if it’s your fault that one less exists.
Death is irreversible, but more than that it doesn’t take away the past.
Think about the families who lose daughters and sons to suicide. They will never be whole again. With each passing year another family picture is incomplete. Anniversaries go by and all they do is bring tears of what life was supposed to be. Suicide may solve one person’s problems, but it adds on to everyone else’s.
