Coping After Suicide

HAVE YOU LOST A SIBLING TO SU***DE?
Coping After Su***de's national SIBLINGS GROUP is facilitated by
Marianne Schrom, who has one of the most gentle hearts of anyone I've ever known.

All of our national support groups are professionally-facilitated by people like Marianne who've had a personal loss, so they really get it. And they all meet on Zoom, welcoming members from across the country.
New groups are starting now and complete information is here: https://www.copingaftersu***de.com/support-groups
Please pass this on to anyone who might want to know - no one should have to go through this alone.

sib·ling
[ˈsib-ling] • (noun)

One who shares your childhood. Your inside jokes. Your family story. Your roots.

Also see: A built-in best friend. A rival. A protector. A piece of your heart.

💙🧡

But what happens when your sibling is no longer here?

When you lose a sibling - especially to su***de - you lose more than a person.
You lose the one whose life you witnessed from the very beginning.
The one who knew your parents before they had gray hair.
The one who teased you, frustrated you - and amazed you.
The one who didn’t need you to explain - they just got it.
The one you thought would always be there.

Sibling grief is deep. It's unique. And it's often overlooked.
It’s the kind of heartbreak people don’t always talk about.

But we see you. And we’re holding space for you today.

If you’ve lost a sibling, you’re not alone.

Our Coping After Su***de group for siblings is a place to speak their name, share their story, and connect with others who truly understand this kind of loss. We get it.

Summer session registration is now open. There’s a seat for you.
