We all want a roadmap for grief. When will the pain end? When will I experience joy again? The reason a roadmap for grief does not exist, is because everyone’s grief journey is different. A mother and father grieve for a lost child differently. 
A brother and sister grieve differently for a lost parent. Each one of us had a different relationship with the person we lost. To think that any one of us will follow the same path is unrealistic. It leads to the belief that we are grieving wrong, or not as far along in the process as we should be. Each experience is different, and every journey will be different. Focus on your own healing, and your own needs. We often need to find meaning in the tragedy in order to move forward and accept what has happened. The meaning we place is our own. Nobody can alter it and nobody can tell us what it is. It is our journey and our story to write.
Thanks, I have lost a baby brother to suicide. It’s so painful, a world I have never known, I don’t like it here but I’m learning how to go forward. I hate that he is dead, n died at his own hands. I miss him. This site helps. Thank you.
Hi Irlene, I lost my baby brother to suicide a few weeks ago. I would love to connect with you if possible. Hope for your healing.
Sincerely,
Amy
