How to let go

TW

I’ve been really struggling since my bf passed away a few months ago. He was like my twin just a little older. He always understood me better than anyone including my family. I’m ngl I’ve always felt isolated but this one time I felt like someone got it. We met at the bar and had been glued to each other ever since. I have never met anyone like him ever. I feel like he might have been an angel on earth. He was an artist in every way. His artwork, cooking, rapping, words, his smile, thoughtfulness. The way we met felt like a movie. The loneliness and depression I feel is extreme. There hasn’t been a day I haven’t thought about him. Sometimes I want to put myself in risky situations and question if I still have a purpose here. I’ve never felt this alone and sad. I just want to be with him again. I have no closure the way that things went towards the end and the dreams I had the day before and the day of his death make me wish I’d trusted my intuition. I wish I could’ve saved him. I keep wishing but it’s not going to change anything. I’m not even sure I understand that. I’ve tried to talk to people again, but it seems as if most people just want hookups and nudes. Then I ask myself if I even want to date or just someone like him. My mental health is 💩 and I can’t stop this roller coaster ride. I get momentarily distracted by new hyper fixations, but in the quiet dark hours I’m breaking down again. I feel like a part of me died too and I don’t know how to get me back. I never use to feel this hopeless and negative and to top it off I feel like I can’t vent to people I’m close with because it’s such a depressing topic 😞😔

This is … a lot. And you know that, of course. But sometimes it helps to be reminded: you are dealing with a lot right now. Knowing that doesn’t make it easier, and when the world is this real, it’s impossible to really feel proud of yourself or thankful for some of the good in your world, because the bad seems to outweigh the good. For a really long time it might. But you are here. You’re reaching out, you’re using your voice even when you know there’s a chance no one will answer. That’s courage. Shit, that’s impressive as hell. That’s more than most could do after a tragedy like you’ve been through …

I think you’re doing a good job 🤍

*hugs* never let go, there is no need to. The pain will never go away but after time it will become easier. Embrace that you knew him, cherish those memories and never be afraid to think of him. It's still very raw at the moment and thinking of him will bring up many emotions and they will hurt like hell but there will become a time when you think the most amazing thoughts and your sadness will turn to joy at each though.
I lost my mom to cancer. So I can somewhat relate. Just know you aren't alone. I miss my mom every day. Wishing her to be back even if it was for an hour. Everything reminds me of her but know we do care. And we will listen. I'm always here for you💓

Please if this continues for more than 12 months after he died go look at some professional counselling
