Survivors of Loved Ones to Suicide

Survivors of Loved Ones to Suicide (SOLOS) is a unique suicide support system created for individuals who have lost a loved one to suicide. We are reaching out to those who are on a JOURNEY called grief. We offer a support system unlike any other support system available which is a safe place to come together to share, to discuss, to vent, to learn, and to not feel alone. We offer these individuals both online and face-to-face grief support groups and continue to grow both throughout the United States and the World. As a result, these survivors feel secure and know they are never alone on this journey through suicide grief.

Memoirs of a Suicide’s Daughter

By Her Own Hand: Memoirs of a Suicide’s Daughter, by Signe Hammer. (1991)

This powerful and sometimes harrowing book is an inquest into the mystery of the suicide of the author’s mother, as well as an account of suicide’s effect on its survivors–especially children. “Beautifully told . . . a sobering, eloquent account . . . honest and courageous”.    –San Francisco Chronicle.
