Death is a part of life, as I am sure you have heard a million times already. Just know your feeling of sorrow and depresion will leave. Just know you are not alone in this and this person has other freinds and relatives that are greiving just as you are. Maybe you can have a meeting with them, just so everyone can talk about the passing and share feelings. Another idea is to join a support group, talk to someone in your church, mosque, or synagogue, start a journal, or do/donate in your friends name and memory.
It is a hard time but you will get over it eventually. I am very sorry for your loss, and I hope you find the answers you are seeking. You are in my prayers.

Dealing with greif is a complex issue. Far too involed for Yahoo Answers. Some quick advice, occupy your mind with distractions. Work, clean the house, wash your car, etc. Maybe call another friend over so you have someone else to help you keep your mind off it. It's difficult losing someone in your life. Believe me, the pain will lessen over time. It will never go away, but it will get to a point where you can think about that person and not be over whelmed with grief. I've posted a couple of web sites that have information on dealing with the loss of a friend. Good luck to you.

My sister died almost 13 years ago and about 3 months after that (is 3 months the magic number here?!) I got a severe case of depression. 6 months after my sister was murdered I accepted Christ as my SAVIOR. He really turned my life around. I was still sad, but I realized that my sister had been a witness to me, through her strong walk with the LORD and maybe that was why he caused her to die. I To bring me to Him. Ellen is in heaven now and I am at peace that she is no longer in suffering, though still sad that she is not here on this earth. Was your friend a Christian? Feel free to e-mail me. :) I hope this helps you. I will be praying for you.

A a wise old woma told me once when I was in the depths of a depression "This too shall pass!" But you need to embrace your feelings. Of course you feel sad. But it helps when you remember all the great times you had together. Hang in there...my grangmother is never wrong, it WILL get better!

When your feeling down, take the time to talk to them, just like us that vist the graves of lost loved ones.
Get out the things you to shared, the memory book, pictures, whatever. Go through these as though she's sitting next to you and laugh and cry over the memories. Most of all, tell her you miss her and you miss her friendship.
