Once again I find myself struggling to get up and function and want to go on with living without my brother. It’s almost been a year since my brother took his life and it still feels like he took a part of me. There are so many times I find myself thinking it should be me gone not him he was the better more productive of us. It still kills me that he took his life after my other brother taking his life. Things have changed so much this past year and sure not all for the bad but there are days like today when I miss him so much my body literally aches. I also still find myself angry at him for leaving me. Why couldn’t he face it and fight I have to every day? It’s been four years this year since my other brother took his life and that pain is almost more than I can bare as I grew up with him. Two precious lives lost and for nothing. I feel so alone right now and lost doesn’t even come close to helping describe what another year feels like. My heart aches my soul longs to be with them but I’m not able to go. I’m fighting I hopefully have the support of my dear friends here cause I’m not sure I can get through this alone right now

That is truly too much to bear. *console Have you talked to a professional counsellor about this? My city has an organization that counsels people who are suicidal and has groups for survivors. It's call Safer. Maybe there is something similar near you. Safer offers 6 months of free counselling from professionals.

yes I am currently in counseling trying to cope and deal with this as well as past traumas. That sounds like a really good program maybe others could use it as well
