title: Suicide: a personal reflection.
abstract: One of the authors of this paper, Carla Diedrich, had a personal experience of suicide in her family. She wants to both share the experience and allow the circumstances to be directive and informative for individuals who have had similar experiences with suicide and for those working in a clinical capacity. In this sense, the work belongs to Carla and her family and has been significant, almost cathartic, in helping her especially deal with this difficult set of personal circumstances.
