Jen,

I'm 21, and in May of last year I lost my best friend. The official cause of death was overdose, although we know he didn't, we think it was what he took mixed with the medication he was on. I know exactly how you feel, he's always on my mind, and I can't let him go. I only talk to one person about him, and even though I tell this person most of what I feel, there are quite a few things I keep to myself. So I know exactly how you feel. I don't have anything to say to make you feel better, because I'm still trying to make myself feel better, but just know that there is someone out here that knows how you feel, and currently feels the same way. If you want someone to talk to about her, you can message me anytime. I'd love to have someone to talk to that feels like I do.

All my best,

Shannon

Traumatic loss of an only child

I started this group so that people who have lost their only child or the only child that remained, as in my case, could come together because I believe people that did have a child or children who now have none have special issues.

Loss of a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide

If you have lost a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide please share your story or feelings here. Share the love and beauty of the one you lost. Losing someone any of these ways is not natural and can be hard to understand and ask why? I lost my Mother to an overdose 9 years ago. She also suffered from major depression. Her doctor got her hooked on pain medication and she was addicted most of my life. These doctors who were suppose to help her ended up killing her in the end. I also…See More
