Hey there.

I'm so so sorry for your loss. I know just how horrible death is, and I'm sorry you're going through it right now. Try to talk to family or friends about this, as I'm sure other people will be upset over your friends death aswell. You're not alone in going through this, there are people who you can support and in return they will support you back. Try not to get too upset, I know that's hard, but remember the things that happened, and not what never will. The fact your friend lived is amazing, and the memories you made in the time you both had together will live on as long as you let them. Remember your friend and smile at the things you used to smile at together.

PM me if you ever want to talk. Keep your chin up, you can do this.

I'm so sorry Like Hollie says, you're not alone in this. Could you talk to your family, or other friends? You could also talk to a counsillor if you'd prefer.

I know it will be hard, but it's important to cherish those memories. Your best friend will always be close to your heart.


Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year.

It's perfectly fine to be a happy individual.

Take off at the speed of sound...

I am so sorry :/. It is definitely going to be hard but don't worry just keep your chin up you will get through it. It would be a really good idea to talk to a counselor they can really help you alot.

Message me if you need somebody to talk to

Hey there,

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. It is really hard when you lose anyone especially someone close to you. Right now you are probably feeling all sorts of emotions so it is best to try to get out these feelings because holding them inside will make you feel worse. Don't be alone with all your pain because you don't have to be.

I don't know what happened to your best friend but I don't think they would have wanted to leave you at all. It is difficult but you have to try to focus on all the happy memories you spent together. Then when you are upset or sad hold these memories close to you.

It will get easier so keep hanging on in there

Stay strong.


Soon... Now will be then...Today will be yesterday... Present will be past...And thought will be memory... So...Live for the future! Make your future how you want it!

Hey, I'm sorry for what happened.

You're not alone in this, you should have support from your family and friends to help you cope. And like Jen said, don't hold in your emotions and let them burst.
Everyone mourns differently, and you can deal with your pain/anger/depression, etc by talking to someone who will support you. No matter how long it takes you to heal, I know you can pull through It takes courage and support to bring you there, and you have them somewhere in you whether you believe it or not. You know how a fire leaves room for new life to bloom? In life, from suffering comes healing.

Stay strong
I hope I've helped you
Message me if you want to talk.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

There isn't much you can do, except make sure you don't bottle it all up. It's hard, but you need to talk to someone about it. Losing someone so close to you can be unbearable. Try to hang in there <3

Re: my best friend - April 29th 2011, 03:28 PM

First of all, I'm very sorry to hear about your loss. And how you're feeling is perfectly natural. if I were to loose any of my best friends (I have like two or three), I really don't know what I would do.

The best thing to do is to talk about it. Don't hold your emotions in. Never hold your emotions in. It will eventually explode and just end up badly. Talk to your friends, your family, maybe even a counselor. Talk to a random stranger even (speaking of which, feel free to PM or VM me if you need someone to talk to about this. I always check my inbox ). Just tlak to someone to let out your emotions. If you're feeling anger, talk to someone and/or beat something up or something like that. If you feel sadness, talk to someone and/or have a good cry. Either way, no matter your emotion, you should really talk to someone so you can have closure and won't be having that load on your back.

Again, sorry for you loss. And you'll get through this. All the best to you. <3

I'm sorry for your loss.

It would help to talk to a school counselor or another friend about this. Do you have any mutual friends with the one who've recently passed? Maybe you guys can get together, form a support group or something?
