I went to check on my best friend and she was dead. She was the only person in the world that related to my problems in life and so I’ve lost that support and lost her and also having to deal with a grief I feel no one understands. I feel like it’s going to kill me because I’m in so much pain I feel like my body and mind are just dying
I lost my best girlfriend 33 years ago and still miss her terribly. She was the one person that could communicate with me without words and we knew with one look what the other was thinking.
It is a very deep loss and I am so sorry for you.
this is a most shocking discovery. I am sorry you suffered this.
witnessing death, discovering someone dead, is an awful trauma.
Yes it is awful ! How did you cope when you lost your friend or is it something that you just learn to deal with this pain ?
Thanks
I ugly cried for weeks. I visited her husband, who was also grieving her death and in deep depression. I prayed and prayed for the pain to leave and eventually it did - when I accepted the loss. I was angry at the other driver, the world, her husband for not working so that she was on that road so early in the am yes - I was a mess.
It took a long time before I stopped thinking “oh, I can’t wait to tell Patty!”.
Now, after my husband’s death, I keep wanting to tell my mom.
May peace fall upon you and your home.
Sending you a hug.
