From people who came through it
“Eighteen months ago I was exactly where you are. I remember work gave me one day off like it was yesterday. These days I mostly feel like me. Praying for you.”
Harsy B · been through loss of a friend“Dear you, Losing a friend is like losing a part of yourself. I don't have magic words, but I can tell you that it's okay to feel broken for a while. The group might change, and that's hard. Tell people when you can, and don't be afraid to say you're not okay. The numbness from meds might fade, or you might need to try something else. Be patient with yourself. And if you can, find one person who gets it. That helped me.”
book_mum · been through loss of a friend“You won't believe it now, but the day will come when you can think about them without crying. It won't be soon. For me it was months. The nights are the worst, so find someone who's awake. I called a helpline at 2am once and the woman just listened. That helped more than anything. Don't try to be strong for everyone else. Let someone be strong for you. And when her mum texts, answer. Even if it's just an emoji. She's hurting too.”
Golden Ember · been through loss of a friend“If you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are a few years back. For me it was her mum still messages me. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. Keep going, even slowly.”
