Suicide can leave survivors with unanswered questions creating a challenging, confusing, and painful experience.
*************************************
Your participation in HAYLOS, a confidential, faith-based and peer-led support group may reduce anxiety, improve self-esteem, and help one feel less lonely, isolated, or judged which may reduce distress, depression, or fatigue. All sessions are closed and have a topic with discussion that include materials to help process your grief and move forward in life. You will learn practical skills to help you cope with the challenges you are facing.
We meet the 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month January through October.
We meet the 1 st & 3rd Thursdays in November & December due to the holidays.
*********************************
These tips will help you get the most from your HAYLOS experience, and keep your expectations in check.
- Be consistent and attend three consecutive meetings.
- Take what you need, leave the rest.
- Stay somewhat anonymous.
- Set your expectations.
- Be respectful of other people.
- Respond mindfully.
- Don't believe everything you read. Support groups aren't for everyone at any given time but ensure you have attended three consecutive meetings before making this decision.
