I lost my best friend to suicide
And I'm having a hard time with it. Depression has really taken a toll on me and I don't know how to overcome it. Some days are better than others. Lately I think I've been keeping myself busy by working 3 jobs, going to school, and being available for any social activities I can go to. But I think I'm overworking my body now, and it's effecting my health. I keep myself busy because I don't want to face the painful reality that she's not here anymore. Can anyone else relate?
I am sooo sorry you are going thru this. Please reach out for a listening session we would love to hear your thoughts. We are always here. ❤ You don't have to go through this alone.
I hate you are going through this and I know nothing I say will take your pain away but I can relate. I'm not sure if you want to hear it but.. When I was in high school I lost my best friend to suicide, her boyfriend, my guitarist, and another close friend all right together. It was so bad that year that the news papers called us "Suicide High". I know you are struggling with this. I know your pain. I know what it's like to have people you barely know coming up to you saying they are sorry. I know what it's like to have people wanting you to talk about your feelings but you can't because your feelings are like a kaleidoscope and you don't know where to begin. I know you feel like your alone but your not. I know what it's like to say everyday "why did you do this" . I know you are asking "why did you leave me." YOU can push through this. Tomorrow is always a fresh start. I know you hear that crap all the time but you have take this one day at a time. There is a quote that I say to myself everyday...people laugh at me because it's from Rocky but it has helped me " The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward." I have been hit hard in my life but I keep moving forward, that is what you gotta do keep moving forward. You are not alone.
