When partners have different needs around processing a child's suicide

Our daughter died by suicide two years ago and my wife wants to talk about the signs we missed while I can't bear to relive those final weeks. We're stuck in this loop where she needs to process and I need to protect myself from drowning in what-ifs, and neither of us knows how to honor both needs.

What we've seen

Love requires both the courage to face unbearable truths and the wisdom to know when protection is necessary - but rarely at the same time.

Worth thinking about
