Stephanie Sykes-Comas

My name is Stephanie Sykes-Comas, and I am a two-time sibling survivor of suicide. My journey has been shaped by profound loss, but through it, I have found purpose: to share my story, foster connection, and create a space for healing.

Losing a loved one to suicide is an unimaginable pain, one that reshapes every aspect of life. As someone who has walked this path twice, I understand the deep sorrow, the unanswered questions, and the struggle to navigate a world that keeps moving forward. But I also know the power of resilience, the comfort found in silence, and the hope that emerges when we support one another.

This platform is my way of reaching out.  To let you know that you are not alone. Whether you are searching for understanding, belonging, or simply a place to share, my mission is to provide solace, strength, and hope. Together, we can honor our loved ones, embrace our grief, and move forward with compassion and courage.

  "I didn't just lose my brothers.  I lost versions of myself, my family,                     and my future." 

Thank you for being here!
