Am I doing wrong in trying to forget my fathers suicide

Tweet

Hi Friends, Just now I responded to a discussion about suicide and I remembered the tragic event that hit my family. My father committed suicide on this day 5 years back Aug-16,2003. That is the time I finished my Polytechnic and looking forward to join engineering. His death is a shock to me as I never learned he is so deeply depressed. Later I came to know he is worried about my brother who became addicted to drugs and at the same time his partners cheated him. He had been a very honourable man till then and his partners cheating had left him in debt of 25,00,000 which is far above our assets. So he sold major part of his assets and when nothing was left he committed suicide. Till then I knew nothing about all these troubles as I was away for studies. Suddenly my brother bunked the house and the burden fell on me. I had to give up my studies and join the job as a chemist in a small manufacturing industry. Now I am an officer in a MNC. I cleared all his debts in these 5 years and was forgetting this tragic incident, but the discussion woke guilty conciousness in me. Am I doing the wrong thing trying to forget my father. Does anyone have similar incident and how did you cope with it
