Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?
Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can.

Nancy, I'm sorry. Seems like that's all we are on here. Sorry. Sorry for ourselves and sorry that others are feeling as we do. We lost our son July 2010. It's not easy, but there are days that are a little better, but not a day that he is not thought about and missed. This is our life now. I hope you will join in on the board. It may help some.
I sometimes will go long periods without posting, but I try and keep up with the comments.
I wish we could have met under different circumstances. We are like relatives that never met before. We are now members of the Grief family.
I am sorry. Take care of yourself as best you can. {{{Hugs}}}
