A Moral Life After a Suicide Death in Taiwan
Bibliographic Data
In this article we present the findings of a qualitative study exploring what suicide survivors in Taiwan experienced after a family member's suicide and how they adjusted to the perceived stigma. Fifteen suicide survivors participated in this study. We found that when a family member's suicide death occurred, survivors first kept a low profile when holding the funeral, and then tried to expel the dead person from their family. They also wished that their grief and painful, shameful feelings could be buried with the dead person. These findings suggest that health care professionals need to work more closely with suicide survivors through understanding the survivors' fear and pain from a sociocultural perspective, and to help them construct a new moral life
