Once again, if you're not already journaling, I want to remind you how important it can be after experiencing such a tragic loss. Putting your thoughts and feelings on paper not only helps you organize your thoughts, but serves as a point of reference along your journey.
When you lose someone to su***de, your mind can feel overwhelming—full of questions, memories, regrets, anger, love… sometimes all at once. Journalling can become a quiet place to put those thoughts when they feel too heavy to carry.
It gives your grief somewhere to go.
On paper, you don’t have to filter yourself. You can say the things you can’t say out loud. Ask the questions that may never have answers. Express the anger, the guilt, the love—honestly and without judgment.
Journalling can also help make sense of the chaos. Not by “solving” your grief, but by slowly untangling it, one thought at a time.
Some days it might be a few words.
Other days it might be everything.
There’s no right way to do it. Just your way.
And over time, those pages can become a reflection of your strength—proof that even in your hardest moments, you kept going.
You don’t have to carry it all inside.
There are some tips below. ❤️
