From people who came through it
“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“I'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason and it doesn't, but you can get through it and I did, and I'm not especially strong so what helped me was writing everything down before appointments, otherwise I forget it all.”
Isaac Lr · 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.”
springdusk7 · been through loss of a friend“A note for the next person. I was in the same place a year and a half ago. For me, the group of friends feels broken. I've started painting again. You get yourself back in pieces. From someone who gets it.”
