Bereavement - Teens Support Group
This community is focused on teens who have lost someone close to them. Grief is a multi-faceted response to loss, and while most people focus on the emotional response to loss, it can affect us behaviorally, physically, and even spiritually. This is a safe place to talk about how you're feeling and coping with grief, and to share experiences that have helped you through.

This time of year is always really hard for me, 2 years ago in January I lost one of my friends to cancer and that was bad enough. we weren't amazingly close but it still really hurt. Would you believe i actually thought it had really affected me but then a year ago in February one of my closest freinds comitted suicide and then i felt real pain. unlike before i couldn't understand his death because he'd causedit and i couldn't understand why. We were so close and I could tell him anything which was a big deal for me because i always put up so many barriers but there was no need to hide from him. I could so be myslef and i felt safe. So not only do i have to havecope with him dying but now i have no one to talk to that i feel i can trust and i am so low and everything is going wrong, i've had enough. In his note it said he didn't feel loved but he so was,i loved him, i needed him and he just left me. Its left such an empty space, in the first months after his death people told me the pain would ease eventually. But now its like he's been forgotten, people are moving on but i just can't i don't want to let go because lettin go means losing him all over again and i can't do it, i just can't.

I can count 4 times this year when I Went out of my way to make sure a "friend" felt good on their birthday, especially if they got left hanging. Its early in the...
The heart heals. Your friend hasn't been forgotten. The ones who cared still think of him, but yes, they are moving on, as you should. I am not saying delete him from your memory, but live like you did before. He would want you to smile. That's the thing he had forgotten how to do. Live for the both of you.
