So, I lost an extremely close friend of mine a little while ago, and every time I think I'm finally recovering from that loss it just hits me head on. I end up sobbing to the point of asthma attacks, my sleeping schedule is f---ed because of dreams/nightmares involving him. It's starting to take a huge toll on me mentally and physically. I've read a lot of stuff about coping with loss and it just all seems so insincere and none of it has made me feel any better.
I'm starting school again Wednesday. It's going to be so s---ty without him. I can't even go into town without people trying to come up to me and talk about him. I hate it. I've come so close to losing a friend because she didn't like the way I was grieving.
I feel stuck. I feel like I'm not dealing with this at all and that it's going to get worse. He helped me a lot. I grew a lot because of him. And I'm so f---ed up about him not being at school with me. I don't know how I'm going to tolerate that place without him.
I realize that none of you are doctors and I know that I probably shouldn't come to the internet for advice.. But you're real people, many of you have dealt with loss. Do any of you have suggestions for ways to cope/deal with grief properly?
Thank you in advance. -
No real solution. When this happened to me I cried a lot, talked to people including his family and others who were equally as sad. Wrote notes to him and talked to him when I was going to sleep like he was there with me. I'm not that religious but I cant imagine him just being gone gone, I still feel like he heard me. and its been 4 yrs now and I still think about him. sometimes I get sad but mostly I just feel his presence, like he's here with me and he was the type of person that made me want to just enjoy life and not give a s--- what other people think so when I think about him it makes me remember that's what I want to do. to just enjoy life. cause he doesn't want me sitting here being sorry that he's gone but live life a little more, live it for both myself and him.

I don't know if that's "dealing with grief properly" but that's what I did. it still took a while though, to "get over", though I think theres no such thing as really "getting over" something like this.
