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

Sandra......Thanks for asking me to be your friend on here. I am here most of the time. Just leave me a message any time and I will respond as soon as possible.
Dear Sandra,
I am so sorry that your husband had cancer, it is just so evil. Pancreatic cancer took my brother in law 2 years ago in less than a month from diagnoses. It was so impossible to think of something to say to comfort my sister in law and the rest of the family. It is difficult because nothing I say will remove the pain. I think we lived in total shock as I am sure you did.
You will find that you will go thru every emotion there is and that this grief journey is handled individually - in your own time and your own way. My family found it helpful to read this brochure:
When Someone You Love Dies
especially pages 14 - 17 How Can I Live With My Grief?
I hope you read it and find comfort and ways that fit you that help carry the grief. (((((HUGS)))))
