On Oct. 25, VA co-hosted a Twitter chat on the process of grieving and healing after the loss of a loved one to suicide. VA’s co-hosts — the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP), The Mighty, Sarah Barthel of the band Phantogram, and TV personality and motivational speaker Dustin Pari — shared multiple perspectives, including the Veteran point of view and that of a suicide loss survivor.
Here’s a summary of the discussion, which covered a wide range of topics and suggested valuable resources from VA and our partners for people coping with the effects of suicide.
