Searching for Why: Navigating Loss and Finding Hope after Suicide Bereavement

by Paul McGregor, Rory O'Connor (Foreword)

This important book examines how to navigate a bereavement by suicide. Mental health advocate Paul McGregor uses his powerful lived experience to explore the unique grief that accompanies bereavement by suicide or a suicide attempt. He reflects on what we can do – as individuals and a society – to reduce the stigma around suicide and promote understanding. He offers practical advice to help those affected with their grief. One study estimates that 115 people are affected by every suicide, with 1 in 5 reporting that this experience had a devastating impact or caused a major life disruption. This book focuses on supporting those affected.
