My younger sister passed away unexpectedly a few months ago in an apartment fire and I am having trouble dealing with this.
The app works well.
Everything is good.

Have you seek therapy? Even if they can't lessen the pain, at least you have a place to vent out

I have not for this particular issue, I tried it in the past and didn't like it too much.

You can ask around to see if your friends know anyone good. If not, I'd suggest joining a group of people of the same problem where you can talk to each other

I think that is a really good idea, I hadn't thought about seeking out others with the same situation. Have you ever experienced anything like this in your life?

Yes I have, I lost one of my friends by suicide, It's very difficult and took years for me to somehow get over it
assistant

I just cried my heart out, I talked to my other friends just to get it out of my heart

2-3 years, at first I thought it was over but once in a while I would think of him and had this sharp pain in my chest. I tried to busy myself with work and other stuff too.
