Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

In 1989, the author's husband of 21 years, 44-year-old Harry, a New York City physician who was depressed over the recent deaths of his parents, killed himself with a lethal dose of an anesthetic. Stunned by her loss, Fine (Married to Medicine: An Intimate Portrait of Doctors' Wives) searched in vain for books on how to deal with the suicide of a loved one. In her comprehensive and well-written manual for "suicide survivors," such as herself, she offers advice for those recovering from the suicide of a marital partner, relative or close friend. Drawing on research, interviews with survivors and her own experience, Fine provides insights into living beyond this tragedy including dealing with feelings of guilt and anger, the stigma of suicide and financial and legal problems, and she tells where to get help. She stresses that joining a peer support group is an important coping tool. Although some of the descriptions of suicides make for harrowing reading, the book is a valuable contribution to an overlooked subject.

From Library Journal

A great many books have been written on the reasons for suicide from the victim's point of view, but this powerful work deals with the wrenching emotional effects of unexpected purposeful death on grieving survivors. The author's husband, seemingly a thriving physician, took his life in December 1989. Fine's discovery of his body left her with a flood of mixed emotions and anguish that inspired her to record, in vividly honest terms, the legacy of suicide on survivors. Despite the permanent sadness and even humiliation that suicide survivors face, this book offers hope in its summary of predictable patterns of adjustment. Sections move from the suicide, to its aftermath, to survival and how to make sense of the chaos. An excellent appendix includes current information on organizations, resource materials, and support groups for suicide survivors. The bibliography is extensive and useful. Recommended for public libraries and specialized mental health collections.?Catherine T. Charvat, John Marshall Lib., Alexandria, Va.

5.0 out of 5 stars difficult, but important, book, July 18 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: No Time to Say Goodbye: Surviving The Suicide Of A Loved One (Paperback)
I lost my mom and my brother to suicide; my sister keeps trying. This book has done more than I thought possible to make me understand that the anger and guilt and anguish that I feel at my loss can be overcome. The stories the author shares put a voice to my own experiences as a survivor.

5.0 out of 5 stars THANK YOU, Dec 19 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: No Time to Say Goodbye: Surviving The Suicide Of A Loved One (Paperback)
I lost my brother a few months ago by suicide. This book was excellent. It was almost like it was written just for me. I described my feelings and thoughts. I helped me realize I wasn't alone in how I was feeling. I wish I could send this book to every suicide survivor out there. Thank You so much Clara Fine!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Book - Great Help, Feb 3 2003
By 
Christine Lentz (Bethel Park, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: No Time to Say Goodbye: Surviving The Suicide Of A Loved One (Paperback)
Although I unfortunately HAD to read this book after my younger brother's suicide in June, 2002, I found it so very helpful, understanding and caring. I also listened to Carla Fine speak during a Suicide Presentation teleconference this past September. It made her book even more special. This book covers so many subjects that we ask ourselves everyday; although there are no "answers" for us; this book lets you know your not "alone" in your pain.
