abstract="This study explored experiences of posttraumatic growth in adults bereaved by suicide. Six participants were interviewed using a semi-structured interview schedule. Transcribed interviews were analyzed from an interpretative phenomenological framework. Two superordinate themes, with three ordinate themes in each, were identified: (a) positive growth (&quot;life view,&quot; &quot;knowledge of self,&quot; and &quot;relation to others&quot;) and (b) social context (&quot;gaze of others,&quot; &quot;public guise,&quot; and &quot;solace of other survivors&quot;). Suicide survivors gain extra insights due to their experiences, but are reluctant to acknowledge that they do. This requires consideration in theoretical and clinical settings. © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
