I don't know what I expect by writing this. I just need to vent. I lost a loved one to suicide several years ago. She believed in God, but wasn't a Christian. ( However I pray that she accepted Christ in those last minutes.)
I haven't thought about it much, but suddenly I find myself thinking about it a lot. I had an uncanny experience in which I believe God told me she is in Heaven.
I see a therapist and will be talking about this more at my next session. It's just hard because I thought I'd moved on.
I have depression as well and have been suicidal before. Medication has saved my life. And God too of course. Praise Him!
I pray that God will tell me my loved one is in Heaven. Do you think maybe He has answered me but I am just not listening?
No judgement please. Depression is an illness, not Satan out to get you. Keep in mind I know there are Christians who are aware that depression is an illness, but the ignorance of others is astounding.
It's hard sometimes because I still think suicide has a stigma around it, especially in the church.
