Three months ago today I lost my sister. She was beautiful inside and out. She struggled with an addiction to pills for the longest time and it ultimately took her life. I miss her so much and it makes me angry because she should be here. I just don't know what to do.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I know this site doesn't always have a lot of activity, but it does help to read the postings and know you're not alone. There are also camps you can go to like camp kerry, for loved ones who have lost someone. I took my kids last year after they lost their dad to overdose and we are going again this year. It's especially good for kids to know they are not alone in their loss.
I hope you are doing better now that some time has passed and they you were able to let go of some of the anger. It's a process for sure.
Take care,
Nikki

Lea,

I understand how you feel.  I lost my brother, and I just feel like you have to take things one day at a time.  Most days I am angry, and I miss him terribly, but there are times I think about how he would want me to be.  I remember he sent me a birthday card saying enjoy every moment of life.  I hope that God allows me to get there one day and I pray that you have made it there.

Sibling Loss

This group is for anyone that has lost a brother or sister. Sibling loss is often minimized and people don't realize how devastating losing a sibling can be. I lost my older sister and my life will never be the same. She was my only sibling, I looked up to her, I went to her for everything. I lost my past, present and future. It is traumatic.See More

Triggers Continue to Surface

Late February is a challenging time of year for me.  Jen’s birthday is the 23rd and serves as an annual reminder of all of the potential that was lost…Her’s (mainly), mine, the world’s honestly.  This year she would be 52…It is increasingly hard to imagine, through all of the iterations possible, what she could have become, what was to be her (significant) impact on the world.That being said, things, emotions, have largely settled down since I committed a potential version of what could have…See More
