I'm 24 and live with my friend (Nia,age 13 - no alive relatives) for 2 years already.Nia is quite mature, responsible, intelligent, kind,sensible girl(she acts like a 19yo and she doesn't miss any childhood-she is happy).We are very close,share everything(I don't feel as a guardian because she is the one who helps me when I have a problem or need support).I've never yelled at her or got angry with her.
She has that friend Sara (age 23 - I know her but we are not so close).A week ago Sara passed (a car accident during work-she is in the police and so am I,we were colleagues but weren't so close).And now Nia can't get over Sara's death.I help her, listen to her,hug her,talk about that when she needs(all the time) and understand her(I am there for her).Nia just feels so bad and I feel bad I can't help her pain go away.We all(my and Sara's colleagues) try to help Nia but she keeps crying all the time,she can't think of anything else,she doesn't want to eat or go out.How can I help her?
