Answers:
really sorry to hear about ur loss!. i would say that look to ur family, friends and loved ones to help you cope with your loss and since youre 18 u still have your whole life ahead of you and its not the end of the road!. try make it the beginning of a new chapter in your life, even though its really hard!. also, try and focus on the good memories you shared with your dad and not his death!. keep his legacy that way!.
hope i helped!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think it's the most terrible way to loose a person behind, and I mean that with no disrespect to your dad!. I think it must be extremely hard for you because I am sure there a billion questions you have not answered!. One thing is for sure that it isn't your fault!. There were probably a million factors played into his final decision!. And there was nothing you could of done to prevent it!. I hope you just go out there and make him proud, don't quit too!. Just keep going on and always remember that he loved you becusae I am sure he did!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i'm so sorry!. I was in the same situation at 17!. i am now 26!. my advice is that time heals wounds!. they will never be fully healed of course, but really, in time it gets better!. it sounds cliche, but it is true!. its a process!. and talk with ur friends and family!. or just be around them!. my friends were a big support because i felt like i could say n talk about specific feelings/things to them that i didnt want to talk about with my family, because i was afraid i would upset them more!.!.!.
i think i should've went to see a therapist, like my mom suggested but i was stubborn!. looking back i wish i would've went!. i think it would've helped!. u should think about it-if u have insurance and all that!.

Call the suicide hotline and tell them what's happened and ask if they have any good counseling services to put you on to!.!.!.

Here in NZ, we have victim support, but I don't know what the US equivalent is!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Move on!.

I would feel pretty bad if someone I loved let alone knew killed their self!.!.!.it's like a "WTF!" moment!.

I would use his suicide to better myself!.!.!.be happy he is in a better place now!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Just hang in there!. You'll get though this!. Try to stay around your family and friends as they can be a big part to helping you get though your difficult time!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
