Hi, early hours of this morning i found out i had lost my beloved best friend to suicide. I am heart broken, i was the last person she ever spoke to, I tried my best to support her but it wasnt enough. I miss her so much, she was my everything, a best friend, a sister she was everything I wanted in a sister/best friend. As someone who struggles with suicidal thoughts, I can relate to her in every way but, I am feeling so guilty, I feel like If i had of done more to help her this morning then she might still be alive, I will forever hate myself and I am very upset about it. I joined this community as I want to be there for others who are dealing with loss, im here for you all.
I can see that you’re new to the community. I hope you find it to be a support to you, but I am so sorry for the loss of your best friend that brings you here.

I am very sorry for your terrible loss. suicide is so awful. the world today is so discouraging. its state of affairs a real hinderance to feeling well.
this is not related, but i have a friend but she has mental health problems. she exploded at me about the 5th time in our five year friendship. i feel i have to cut her off because her behavior is incorrigible.
i say this as i sort have lost a friend too, due to other circumstances.
life is hard without the cushiony heart of a good friend to tell things to.
i also had to not reply to a text from an ex. friendly but cannot go down that road again. another person gone. i come on here for deceased parents. it is lonely without these people.
