Grieving a suicide loss in a silence no one knows how to break? This free worksheet gives you a place to put what you’re carrying.

If you’ve lost someone to suicide, you already know this grief doesn’t follow the same path as other losses. It comes with questions that may never fully resolve, feelings that contradict each other, and a silence that surrounds the loss because people don’t know what to say. That silence can make an already devastating loss feel even more isolating.

This free worksheet won’t give you answers to the questions that can’t be answered. It gives you a place to put some of what you’re carrying — the grief, the confusion, the love, and whatever else is present. There’s no right way to grieve this, but there’s value in finding words for it, even imperfect ones, even just for yourself.

• Naming what you’re carrying — including guilt, anger, or relief
• Remembering who they were, beyond how they died
• Holding onto one detail about how they lived
• Finding your way back to yourself and what you need now

You’re surviving something no one should have to survive — the person you lost mattered, and so do you.
