He died during the summer.  He was murdered.  The cause of death and the autopsy have not been released, and the investigation continues, but the people responsible are known to me and the rest of my family.  It is just too horrible to imagine.  Everything has been such a struggle - getting law enforcement to do what they should do has taken months and I had to do all the preliminary investigation and hire experts just to get the law to take it seriously.  I don't feel like I have even had a chance to grieve. I am still in shock.  people think that it doesn't matter because he was old, but I feel like it matters more because every moment was precious.  I feel robbed, angry, deep despair, guilt, overwhelmed, and more.  I will be fine one moment and then burst out crying.  I don't want to see anyone.  Does everyone who loves someone who has been murdered feel this way?  Like you can't breathe until the killers are at least charged?

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. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More
