Today we buried a friend of our family who took her own life. We are in another city, far away, so we couldn't attend the funeral. Question: How do people mourn at home in such cases? Can we do it during dinner? This is the first time in my life I've faced such a situation. No one knows what to do, what to say, or what to think... My mother is going through an incredibly hard time; she's been crying all these days. She can't even pray for them (please don't comment on this!), because they told her that no one prays for them. I've prepared dinner, and we're going now. How should one generally behave in a situation like this?

I don't think they mention the "Self-Harm" trigger, as far as I know.

You can pray for them, but you cannot order a special church service, a 40-day prayer, etc., specifically in the church.

Yes, you can pray at home, and you should. You just can't pray in church.

You can pray and commemorate, but you cannot order a memorial service inside the church itself. So, just pray and commemorate at home.

You can mention it at home. Of course, no notes for her in the temple.

Ask for her forgiveness from the Lord

natalya I'm so sorry to hear that. And personally, I don't judge that choice 🤷️

It seems her choice is not up for discussion. The topic is about something else

natalya How can one judge... (( she lived for her son... her psyche just couldn't take it... and no, she wasn't one of those crazy mother-in-laws... and he wasn't a mommy's boy.
