Hi,

I am so very sorry for your loss. I am going through a very similar loss. On Dec 18 2015 I found my best friend dead at his home, and 9 days later my dad (the best dad ever) passed away, he lost his battle with cancer.

I have some very bad days, still. I try to keep busy. I have found that writing my feeling in a journal really helps. This site is great there are many people to talk to. I'm glad you found it.

If you have family that understands, talk to them. I always try to remember that there is no right way to grief, you have to go through in your own way.

This is a great book.  Transforming Traumatic Grief: Six Steps to Move from Grief

My cousin suggested this video to me, I haven't watched it yet. but if he thinks its good it probably is

Take care

Lisa

"Kali I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal. Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
