Question

Answer 1

You'll never "get over it" but it will become less painful to remember after some time. The loss of anyone close to you leaves a hole that isn't easily filled. It does heal with time, but there is always a scar left. One way to help move grief along is to get together with other friends and remember the missing person - all the good times, and quotes, and just things in general. You'll find that remembering with other people who miss them will help all of you to start healing.

Answer 2

Its entirely understandable for you to feel the way you do. Give yourself grieving time, you will eventually get over it. There are 5 stages of grief that people go through:

1. Denial and Isolation.
At first, we tend to deny the loss has taken place, and may withdraw from our usual social contacts. This stage may last a few moments, or longer.

2. Anger.
The grieving person may then be furious at the person who inflicted the hurt (even if she's dead), or at the world, for letting it happen. He may be angry with himself for letting the event take place, even if, realistically, nothing could have stopped it.

3. Bargaining.
Now the grieving person may make bargains with God, asking, "If I do this, will you take away the loss?"

4. Depression.
The person feels numb, although anger and sadness may remain underneath.

5. Acceptance.
This is when the anger, sadness and mourning have tapered off. The person simply accepts the reality of the loss.

Some people move more quickly though these stages than other people, and sometimes people even get stuck in a stage. One thing to always remember is that even though your friend is no longer here with us physically, that person's spirit will continue to live on, and will always be in your heart. You will never forget about them, but you will eventually accept the fact that they are in a happier place now.

Take care and good luck...

Answer 3

I had a friend that was so close i called her mom she died suddenly. I was tore up. It has been 4 years ago and i still think of her almost every day. It is hard and the pain will fade just keep the good memories alive and your friend will always be with you.

Answer 4

Well you will never really completely get over it. But to stay happy just think about him/her and all the good times you had together. then in that sense he/she is not completely dead

Answer 5

Answer 6
