As I write this I am getting ready to go to my ex-girlfriend's funeral. I lost my ex-girlfriend on March 22 she was a recovering addict's who had a relapse. She died from a heroin overdose. We had recently started seeing each other and talk together again and I discussed the possibility of getting back together, she overdosed on a Sunday afternoon and I was supposed of been there with her that evening. I have all kinds of emotions that I'm feeling, guilt been a huge one. I know it wasn't my fault that she did this , it was the disease of being an addict. I am just trying to find ways to cope. I have no one to talk to that actually understands how I feel. I get a lot of, "I'm sorry". I appreciate everybody who tells me that, but it's starting to get to me.

It seems like every day gets a little bit easier, but little things will just set me off and I will lose it.

So far I have not lost anyone close to me like you have but understand in a way what you are trying to cope with. I want to suggest a movie that I have watched many times that might help you.

It is called "28 Days". It is worth a try. I am very sorry for your loss.

I will check it out. Thank you

Grandma sewing room

So I am almost done with cleaning my grandmas sewing room that wasn’t touched in 10 years because of all the mess, but now that she passed away 2 days ago, I don’t know if I should continue, I wanna finish what I started but I don’t know what to do, my grandpa is still alive and I don’t want to leave this burden on him.See More
