I found this website through our local pamphlet.I lost my brother Simon 1st November 2002 at 28 years of age. Simon felt there was no hope for him as two last medications left had more side affects problem.I hope I can help you understand how hard for Simon to live with the voices. Simon was so caring & thoughtful even when he passed away. Anyone going through suicide attempts hopefully will see you are not alone & we would like to help prevent & make life better for you. Thanks for providing this site. I try to keep my chin up & be positive as that was what had made Simon proud of me.

Hi, my cousin Nick committed suicide this past June. It was the day before my high school graduation. He was 16 years old, and a sophmore in high school. We were very close, and it struck me like a ton of bricks when i was told what happened. He was supposed to go to my graduaton, but I guess he felt that when he saw me at the final assembly it was good enough for him. He was planning to go to college at the same school that I am going to. He had great hopes of becoming a director someday and he was a great writer. I still don't understand why he did what he did. I wake up every day and go to bed every night blaming myself for what happened. I just wonder when the pain will ease. If anyone has any advice for me, please let me know. thanks you for having a site that i know i amn ot alone..

I came to your site to honor those who have gone due to suicide. We have several members in our support groups from Austrailia and NewZealand and I know that they are involved with this association. My heart goes out to you all that have lost to suicide. I lost my son in March of 2002. I wish we could all end this terrible disease called suicide. Bravo to those of you involved with the White Wreath group.

My father took his life on June 26th, 2003 - 2 weeks after turning 65 and celebrating 40 years of marriage. I have not found much in Australia in the way of support specifically for those left behind after a loved one has suicided. I have now discovered White Wreath Association and hope to become involved as much as possible, any way I can in raising awareness of this tragic epidemic. I tried the chat room, but unfortunately there was no one on. Anyway I look forward to my association with White Wreath and I hope that in some way it will help me to heal. Mandy.

I was never really aware of the "White Wreath" organisation until the harsh reality of seeing the wreaths placed in the middle of a local shopping centre. I think that it is great that such an important issue be addressed. For those contemplating suicide - they should look and think about what they are leaving behind - think about tomorrow - just one day could change everything.

A very close friend, Skeeter to his own life on 12/29/03. I'm still hoping this is one big nightmare.
