Suicide Loss Survivors Virtual Chapter Support Group

Details

This is an RfR-wide event, not tied to any particular local chapter.

Dealing with the suicide of a loved one is hard enough. Doing it without relying on religion is even harder. We are here to support you in a compassionate, secular way.
The primary focus of a Recovering From Religion support groups is to provide ongoing peer support to individuals as they let go of their religious beliefs.
These groups are free, small group style meetings. No professional therapist is present, group leaders are volunteers trained in peer support. You are not required to give your real name or show your face on camera. You will be invited, but not required to talk about yourself and your experiences.
Be aware that trolls sometimes appear. Your group leader will make every effort to eject anyone behaving badly as quickly as possible.
Extra Support:
RfR has an immense database of well-curated digital resources collected on all topics related to doubt, non-belief, and transition out of religion. www.recoveringfromreligion.org/resources

There is no cost to attend this support group but, if you feel so inclined, donations can be made at www.recoveringfromreligion.org/donate

If you find you need to talk with someone before the next support meeting, RfR has a hotline and online chat for that express purpose. Call [Appropriate Hotline number] to speak with someone. Go to www.recoveringfromreligion.org and click on the green chat bubble in the lower left corner of the site to chat online.

If you are in need of professional help, we can offer the Secular Therapy Project to provide options to connect with a professional therapist. All therapists have been thoroughly vetted by our organization and offer only evidence-based and non-religious treatment. Connect with them at www.seculartherapy.org.
