We begin our meetings by reciting our affirmation of love and courage.  Survivors are invited to share their feelings or to just listen.  Feelings shared are kept confidential and discussed only within the confines of the group meeting.  Thus, our S.O.S.L. group provides a comfortable, non-threatening setting to share our experiences and thoughts.  It is a safe place where we can remove our "masks" and explore our true feelings.

Questions are encouraged to assist in coping with the different stages of the grieving process and with the feelings that are particularly intense in the aftermath of suicide - guilt, anger, rage, shame, shock, denial, disbelief and, for some, relief.

At some of the meetings, books on grief and suicide are exchanged which gives insight and promote healing through understanding.

We end our discussion sessions by telling something positive that has recently taken place.  The sharing of the joys as well as the sorrows is encouraged in the group.
