[QUOTE="Beerus, post: 20225, member: 1"] You don't have to apologize for sharing stuff like that, really. I feel disconnected from most of my family but if something ever happened to them or one of them took their own life, I would feel what you are feeling. I would feel guilty for not reaching out when I had the chance to, I would be angry that they didn't bother to reach out to me, I would feel sorry for the rest of the family involved in their choice... It is a lot to process as you said. In his case though, he was killing himself long before he actually did anything and there was likely nothing you could have done to stop it. When you get a medical diagnosis as he did and simply don't care to correct the health issues, you have already given up on life. People don't just flip a switch on do this, most think about it for years. That is the scary thing. And many don't show any signs of it. You can't change what happened and beating yourself up for it won't fix anything. Just focus on being closer to your other siblings and what family you can. I am sorry for your loss. Even a small loss or a disconnected one can hurt. Even though you weren't close with him, it is okay to mourn him and it is okay to be angry. Just don't blame yourself. [/QUOTE]
