International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day

Every year in mid-November, people come together for International Day for People Impacted by Suicide Loss (IDPISL) also known as International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day (ISOSLD).  Special events take place around the world, whereby those impacted by suicide loss can find comfort, remember loved ones, and share stories of loss, healing, and hope.

Losing someone to suicide is a unique loss and can lead to several conflicting feelings and many unanswered questions. There is no one way to feel or grieve a death by suicide – we all react and grieve differently. It is important to remember that you are not alone – that suicide impacts more people than we often know about.

International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day is an annual event in which survivors of suicide loss come together to find connection, understanding, and hope through their shared experiences.
