Friends Death ??? .....

Ok so my friend died a while ago.
and ever since things have been really hard.
i've been living with this guilt and it just sucks to pretty much live. Have any of you had a friend die ??? maybe you can help me out??

Well for starters, why do you feel guilty? As if you influenced on her/his death in any way?x

Bang bang...a little tact please....don't need to be so blunt.

I have lost alot of my friends over the years how can I help?

One of my very close friends passed away when we were both six. It was tough for a few months and I was reluctant to go to school. It was so much pressure, having to listen to everyone’s, "You'll be OK". But what really annoyed me was that before she died, I told her: "You'll be OK".

And that’s when I told myself that humans don't have control over everything.

There isn't any need to feel guilty, and Lucifer is right, it's not like you influenced his/her death.

Take care of yourself and if you ever need anyone to type to, just email me =].

God bless,

I have lost many pets, who were my best friend.
Most people don't understand that the loss of a cat can be just as acute as the loss of a human.

I kept on feeling empty, lonely, as though an extremely important piece was missing in my life, but I couldn't just pin it down.

I didn't get any sympathy... no, "you'll be ok" "I'm so sorry this had to happen" and that sort of stuff.
I can't decide if that was good or bad. I felt alone, helpless.

I'm still scared that I'll lose my other cats, and every time I turn around, I could almost swear that I could see the shadow of a black cat dancing at the corner of my eye.
It goes away. You heal, but there is always that aching edge in your heart.

I lost a friend to the horrible eating disorder, anorexia. She apparently knew it was wrong then told all her friends and everyone who cared about her that she was well again, and she got over the sickness. Asides from her weekly visits to the doctor, she was fine, and even he said there was great progress. But evidently, now, we all know how wrong we were. One night she was walking home from a party, she may have been drinking, but she definately didn't eat, since she still secretly suffered from ana/mia...and she collapsed on the floor, hit her head, and lay there unconscious for maybe twenty minutes before someone driving by on that deserted street found her and called an ambulance. By the time she reached the hospital her body was holding on to little life, and we couldn't save her. From that horrible loss, we all learned something...you never know...never...never know what may be bothering a person inside. They can act so happy, but the happiest ones always have dark secrets. Never take a friendship for granted. Her passing, which occured a year ago, still affects her family and I greatly...mainly because, we couldn't see through her smiles.

Hopefully time will heal both of us. Stay strong. x0x

i have also lost a few friends, mainly through mental health issues.. i believe where they are now is a better place and they will again be able to smile and find the happiness that they found so hard to find here.. time does heal, you will never forget them, and will still be upset when you think of your loss, but they live on in our memories x

one of my closet friends killed himself shortly after he turned 14. we would talk about different things from time to time cuz not alot lf ppl REALLY cared about him. he was always made fun of kids at his school would make fun of him (he was barely havier then them, but that was their fav thing to say was he was fat) and theyd hit him. like i said he was kind of heavy so hed use that as an excuse to always keep a shirt on and i never found out the real reason till he took his life... he told his bro 2 get the camera & folow him. he took off his shirt & his entire chest was bruised... from his own DAD! a week earlier he said to listen to my P.O.D. cd for a song that sounded like us but i didnt. the day i found out he died i went home turned on that cd and heard the title song Youth of the Nation...
i had always called him johnny boy and couldnt figure out why, but the worst part is he took his life the same way as the johnny in the song... was why and i felt like such crap for about a year straight, im just starting to really get over it.

sorry this is so long but i hope you really read it i think it could help. i usually dont say tis, but
i know what yure going thru.
if you ever need to talk, hit me up!

^^^^^Geese that's so sad!!!!

My friend died of Leukemia in the 4th grade. It was so sad because autumn had finally rolled around, our favorite season. And I knew she loved pumpkin pie, so we went out, bought two pumpkins.

And we, my family and I, were in the process of making her a pumpkin pie when we got the news that she died in her sleep the night before...

It was a bummer, needless to say.

She was so beautiful too. Would have been a model, I'm sure. Had a smile that would light up a room. No one should die that young, before given the chance to live. 9 years old is too young to die. =[
