I Am Dealing With Grief

My best guy friend suddenly passed away from cancer. He was only 25. He had luekimea. It hurts so bad. It had been only four months. I've known him since I was 8. It hurts and I feel like crap. I've gained a lot of weight and my doctor cussed me out for not following her diet plan. I just don't wanna do anything. My dad said it's okay to grieve but don't stop living just because my friend is gone. I have to remember that he isn't coming back and I need to move forward and take care of myself. My dad is understanding but not the emotional type of person. I'm very emotional so I don't really talk to him about my feelings much. I don't even talk to my own family about it. I just talk to my friends and best friend because we all know him. Is that normal that sometimes we can't even talk to our own families and talk to your friends instead.

I feel your pain. I was friends with a girl who had osteosarcoma or cancer of the bones but she ended up dying from it. I still can’t get over it after years of hearing that she died. She was my best friend. Like a big sister to me. She was a family friend. She was only 16 when she died. Sometimes when I remember Muriel I start crying in front of people.

Grief affects everybody differently.And there are no rules as to how it should. Despite what anyone tries to tell you.

I think pushing people away or maybe hiding away yourself is understandable but ultimately counterproductive.
So allow the stages of grief to come and try not to fight them.
Each is a part of the healing process.
