Hello,

I am sorry to hear that u have also lost people to suicide.

To be honest, in the last few days I have been missing my dad quite a lot, and I have been wanting to seek out a police report and/or an autopsy report. I am not sure if that would be a good idea or not for my mental health but I just feel like I need something more.

In regards to my family, my grandparents are understandably devastated, as is his partner. My mum (although divorced) is also struggling a lot with having to take on full financial responsibility of mine and my sister’s care, without child support now, so she is stressed and angry at him.

I have basically just been paying more attention to doing what makes me happy, rather than what people expect of me, to help my mental health.

Thank u for your response, and feel free to share more about your own story if u want xx
