2 Weeks, Been hell

[omgabear]

Ok I rarely complain and whine on these sort of forums, but hell I really need some support.

About 2 weeks ago, my cousin passed away, she was a year older than me and died in a car crash, we were great friends and her death really messed with me, she lives on the other side of the country so I couldnt go to her funeral, and though I have rarely seen her over the last few years prior to her death, I really miss her.

The night before last, my friend, one of my best friends actually went O.D. He was taken to hospital and is in a bad condition, his chances of surviving are greater than him dying, but those chances are there and when your in this situation you only tend to think of the negatives.

If I lose him, it will shatter me. Hes my best friend and coping with 1 death is hard enough. I know its hard to express over the net, but im desperete, I almost never post about my life and my issues, but to much **** is going through my head, i need to let some go. I just get over my cousin passing and I may lose another friend, and if he doesnt die he might change, I dont want that hes a great guy and doesnt deserve this.

Why is everyone around me dying?

I haven't lost someone personally.. for god knows how long.

Hope you get through it okay mate, sounds like you're having a real crap time atm. Just think to yourself that its good that you didn't OD. It's good to hear somebody not BSing about this kind of stuff, you're trusted guy.

I dont want to sound tough, but I can normally get through these situations. But this time its worse, much worse.

Well, I know it isn't the same but... My friend moved to Australia last year, after knowing them all my life. I used to get upset at everything that connected me in the slightest way to them, or go to places we used to always go to. It used to make me upset even more that they ARE there, I just never will meet them again.

But then things got better and when I thought about them it made me happy remembering them rather than wanting them back. I know this will be much less pain than what you're going through, but things will get better.

I found out my new best friend is moving to Australia in 2 weeks, hurray.

Okay its a tought situation, and its alright to feel upset.
Try and take a step back from your problems and do something you enjoy to express your feelings whether its talking it out, drawing, writing, playing guitar etc. Dont take on anything to stressful at this time just reflect and take time out for yourself. Remember greif is a normal recation whether its sadness, anger frustaion etc just deal with how you feel.
See if you can go and see your cousins grave, if your parents will let you. I think you want a chance to stay goodbye and pay your respects.
As for your friend tell him how you feel, that you want him to be around. Support him, alot of guys want some-one there to talk to but are afraid to ask. Find out why he did it that might help you understand what he's going through.
Death is a part of life, as we grow older more people die around us and we have to become resilliant and learn to cope the best we can.

If you need anymore help or just someone to listen fell free to p.m me anytime =)

It's bad enough have one person pass away who you care about but to have another on the brink must be heartbreaking. I can't understand your pain because I've never been through it but I can sympathise with it and I hope your friend is OK. You will have good and bad days I should think, but the most important thing is to make sure you talk to someone and don't bottle up your emotions. In my opinion that is the worst thing you can do.
