I should be over it by now -
May 28th 2011, 12:31 AM
My older sister, Amanda, passed away 13 years ago when I was 6. Since I was so young when it happened, I didn't really understand. But it seems like over the past few years, the grief has caught up with me and I just can't get over it. None of my friends ever understand where I'm coming from because they've never experienced this type of loss, so I'm just kind of on my own. I feel like I should be over it, especially since I don't really have that many memories or anything. But no matter what I do, it constantly overwhelms me. I'm always afraid to bring it up with my family because I don't want to cause them to hurt. So I usually just keep it all to myself.

Brianna,
I'm sorry for your loss. It is very upsetting to lose somebody very close to you, whether you got to know them very well or not. At the end of the day, she is your sister, and you love her. Losing somebody is very hard to deal with and can be overwhelming and upsetting, I'd suggest talking to a counsellor who can talk through your feelings with you; which may help to put you at some ease. You are more than welcome to PM me anytime if ever you need somebody to talk to at all. 
 Just keep following the heartlines on your hand. |

Hello,
I'm so sorry for your loss. Something like this kinda happened to me, my Papa died when I was in 2nd grade and also didn't really realize what was going on. Just in the past few years I've gotten really sad and depressed when i think of him, much unlike I was when all those years ago. I think sometimes it takes a while for you to completly grasp the idea of your sister not being there. Just over the past year a couple of people close to me have died, and for me, I don't feel like they are actually dead, but just on a long vacation. Eventually you'll realize that they aren't just on "vacation", and that could be what you are going through now. Also, as you grow up, you are reminded of "what could have been". Don't keep this sorrow all to yourself. Talk at least to your family about it. It may remind your parents of difficult times, but its better to cry with others than alone. You'll find a weight will be lifted off your chest. Just remember that your sister is always with you, just not phyiscally, and you're not alone. Good Luck, KK |
