Abstract

To better understand suicide loss survivors' experiences and barriers to accessing support and mental health care, 28 (21 women and 7 men) suicide loss survivors were interviewed. Using qualitative analysis of 28 in-depth, semi-structured phone interviews data, three categories emerged: Life before Suicide, Life after Suicide, and Meaning of Life. This deeper understanding of suicide loss survivors along with inclusion of experiences of male and rural participants' suicide loss, fill previously identified research gaps. Our findings suggest importance in providing emotional support and mental health resources to those with suicide intent or experiences with suicide loss. Most importantly, the recognition of suicide loss survivors extends beyond the immediate family and includes cousins, friends, and work associates. Recognition of extended suicide loss survivors' bereavement will provide additional opportunities for healthcare providers to effectively intervene with this vulnerable population.
