Brett’s suicide letter read, in part: I was never supposed to be a police officer. I just wound up in this career because of dumb luck after dropping out of art college. It was you that kept me going. This occupation has aged me horribly and I believe turned me mostly into someone I am not. I also blame the stress of this career for my health issues.

After my husband ended his life I was completely devastated and felt as if I was torn into pieces that could never be put back together. How could life go on? The emotional pain he ended was unknowingly passed onto me. I knew I needed help quickly. I joined a support group called SASS (Suicide Awareness Survivor Support) who supports the ones left behind after a loved one's suicide and also helps raise mental health awareness. I will never get over my husband's death, but I now know that I can get through it, thanks to SASS. I sweep nothing under the rug. By starting an open and honest conversation I hope to help break down the stigmas and start raising mental health awareness. Together we can stay above the rug!
