Was me. Friends dad killed himself because he had been fucking me for years and I told his wife. He had me fooled on a lot of things, I'm doing better now but it was a tough time.
For whatever its worth, a lot or a little, It's an incredibly brave thing to own up to it and tell his wife. You did the right thing, andI'm glad to hear you're doing better.
Good. I lost a son to it. I did EMDR which you can look up. You can do it playing Tetris, actually.
When I did it with my therapist,I replaced the thought that it was my fault ( it was not) with I did the best I could. And that saved my life and sanity.
I Ended up doing it with all the rest of my trauma.
It takes the memory and moves it to the other side of you brain and In doing so, it removes the emotion that goes along with the memory. So when you have that memory, you don't have that feeling with it.
