Lost a loved one yesterday
FROG SUPPORT TEAM
I'm not sure what really say frens. My cousin committed suicide yesterday morning. We were born 5 days apart and raised as brothers. He was only 32. I don't know what im gonna do without him. I don't know what im gonna do without him. I loved him.
Sorry, Fren. Really sad news. Prayers
Prayers here too.
So, So Sorry. Suicide is so sad because it is never the correct answer. But you will go on because you have to. Whatever his circumstances were, they are not your circumstances. You can honor him by alerting others that suicide is not the way out.
I am so sorry for the tragic loss of your cousin. How incredibly sad for you and your family. My thoughts are with you at this time.
Sorry to ask a question at this time:
Did he have any history of thinking this way or do you think It's related to the hard times now?
May his friends and family and you in particular have the strength you need at this time.
I wish I had the words to ease your pain. Iām so sorry for your loss of your beloved cousin. May God give you peace and I pray your cousin is now in paradise.
So sorry. My Mom committed suicide, it's the kind of loss that can never be reconciled in one's heart, even though we can come to understand it, a bit, in our heads. Imagine pain so bad that one chooses death.You can only hope that he found peace, but you will probably think on it a long time. At 72, I still sometimes lay and think "why?" There are no answers, except that they were deeply troubled in a place no one could reach. Let yourself grieve, take all the time you need. I will think of you in my prayers tonight, let God soothe you in the comfort of HIS Love.
I was 15 years old, found her when I came home from school that day. There had been many attempts, and in 1965, no one knew how to treat it, medicines, shock treatments. She had had polio when she was only 3, and put in an institution till she recovered.3 yrs old and kept in isolation, she often told me she had one doll, but they took it when they cleaned the room and did not give it back. As I matured, and learned about ptsd, I am sure that time of her life took a lot of life out of her. She was loved by a good man, my Dad, who worked and tried to give her what he thought would make her happy, not material things, but security and he made sure she always could get out for rides in the country, going to movies and musicals, etc. She would snap out of it, then go the other way. Perhaps it was bipolar, who knows. I do know that whatever she was going through, she just could not go through it anymore, she wanted peace and rest. She was weary, God knows this, he does not judge the mentally destroyed, he took her in his arms, and there she rests.
Truly and deeply sorry for your loss.
What will you do without him? You will live the life that you had both wanted for yourselves. You will do the things and visit the places that you talked about. That will be your tribute to him.
You will go on because he would want you to. He loved you but whatever was in his mind clouded that out. He couldn't see or feel your love because of the fog. But you can see. You can feel.
You will take one day at a time. Today you will hold your loved ones and share grief. Tomorrow you will try to be a source of support for your cousin's loved ones. The following day you will keep moving forward even if it's small steps. Each day you will move forward.
Move forward. Keep his hopes and dreams alive within yourself. Love and comfort his loved ones. The act of doing so will help you all move forward. Get help as a family from support groups, clergy, healthcare professionals.
Please come back here to all of your frens if you need prayers, love, and support. We may be a motley bunch but we have good hearts that always have room you. Hugs to you, fren.
Very sorry for your loss, fren. May your cousin rest in peace. May the Lord comfort you.
I am so sorry to hear your cousin was in such turmoil. And Iām so sorry that you are now having to grieve.
I pray that Jesus wraps his arms around you and your family. I pray that the Prince of Peace brings you comfort and clarity during this time. God, our Father, please shower this family with your blessings. Please, God, ensure that this family is taken care of financially, emotionally, and physically. Lord, give them strength to endure this very difficult time. God, remind this family of your amazing love and please bring them joy.
Your cousin is at perfect peace. He is with our Father and gets to dwell in His house forever!
Amen.
I am so sorry to hear that and for your loss. I am praying for you. May you feel the Lord's presence during this time and lean into Him. God is with you to comfort you.
Sorry Grimby :(
God, may you grant our fren Grimby the strength to get through this difficult time. Amen.
Sorry Fren - it's always hard when someone chooses a permanent solution to a temporary problem. I have been there and I pray God comforts you and your family.ššš
I am so sorry for your loss. R.I.P. to your cousin.

Sorry for your loss. Hang in there fren, make him proud as we crush this evil.
So so sorry for your loss.
Praying for you and your family.
I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you and your family during such a difficult time. May you find comfort in God's word.
So sad. Suicide is seldom rational or even sensible in an emotional way. It will be rough for all who knew him because it doesn't make sense. I hope you can be consoled that whatever led him to feel it was the only solution, he is at peace now. Praying for his rest and your strength.
Prayers brother, things will be ok and you'll see him again one day
My deepest condolences and I will pray your intense grief is shortlived.
Keep his memory alive in your heart but rejoice that hes gone home to be with God. It's hard to be sad when you know they're in a better place. I'm sorry for your loss, I know the devastating grief will continue to punch you in the gut for a long time, but in time it will fade to a manageable level. Hold his light within your heart and shine even brighter for the struggling souls left behind in his wake. Love and prayers.
Terrible news fren. I've been through suicides of both friends and families, including clean up duty. It leaves a hole in you. Why? Why? Why? All I can say is honor your friend and the only thing that heals the wound is time.
You can do the only thing you can do...grieve, mourn, remember the good times, cry as you pray and let some time pass. With time, life happens and you move on. You will be sad, depressed and questioning life, God and forever ask the questions why? could I have done something? Why didn't I see this coming? Just know that all of this is normal and expected under the circumstances. You might want to think about what you could do to honor his memory. Something good for someone else, someone in need.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
I am so very sorry to hear this news. It may take a long time to realize, but you did nothing wrong. There will be so many things you will wish you had said. And so many actions you wish you had taken. I don't want to say it's God's plan, I don't feel like God wants any of us to leave too early but maybe he was needed more up there than down here. I'm sure he has been forgiven already. Make sure that you take time to forgive yourself as well.
Iām sorry to hear your sad news, fren. Suicide is such a hard thing to deal with. Two of my fave family members chose such route as well. Never any answers. Prayers for you.
Sorry Fren, prayers for you and your family.
My brother committed suicide 8 years ago. The wound heals, but the scar runs straight to the heart.
Praying for your ongoing comfort too, fren.
Im sorry. But realize that you will grieve and have to carry on.
There will always be a hole, but the Lord can shoulder anything. Lean on him.
Godbless you fren.
I'm so so sorry fren. Praying for you all. May God comfort you all in this sad time.
Stay strong fren,prayers on the way.
This breaks my heart. I am so sorry for the loss of your cousin.
So very sorry for such a loss as you have suffered. Prayers to you, and your family.
I am really sorry. Praying for your friend.
Grimby, I am sorry for the loss of your cousin. Hugs and my prayer with you.
not being funny but its really hard to be a male/man right now. The world is against you whilst being constantly gaslighted into believing males are dominant etc which induces a really powerful and insidious dissonance. That's why people like Peterson have become so big because they voice these concerns and false realities to young men who are so confused and alienated.
R.I.P.
