fbpx How Do I Ask My Family About My Uncle's Passing?
Authored by Dr. Michelle Murray on September 20, 2022
Dear Dr. Michelle:

When I was young, my uncle died. I was too young to understand but I’m pretty sure he died by suicide. Which I’d like to know more about but I don’t know how to ask because my family doesn’t talk about it at all. How can I broach the subject? And do these tendencies run in families?
