I am a mum whose daughter died by suicide just over 18 months ago while in hospital informally though we feel she should have been in under section at the time. It would be good to talk to others. Not sure if this forum exists as I can't get to see any posts

Hello Lynn,
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss,I lost my husband through suicide around 30 years ago,although I have moved forward , I am now a bereavement volunteer for cruse and Samaritans,I still feel myself personally still affected, its not something you can get over, but you can learn to cope with it, talking about your loss and what your feeling with others is a great start, there is so much support now , I wish it i had know about it when I was in the early stages of grieving, instead of stumbling along on my own,
Regards to you and your family
Jenny
