TW// suicide anniversary

At 11pm tonight marks the anniversary of my friends death who passed away a few years ago but I didn’t find out till 12pm on Christmas Day as that Christmas I was really unwell and was asleep before 11pm so I wasn’t able to help her. I live with the regret and guilt of her passing, it hurts so badly every year 💔😭
Sometimes when the people most like you don't love you, it is a hurt that can cause the greatest pain, and this pain can lead you to hate everything.

    @Rose113 I’m sorry to hear about that, truly. I can’t imagine such pain. We are always here if you need anyone to talk to. ☺️ I always like to remember that grief only exists because love and memories did first, its love persevering, just in a different way. I hope you’re okay.
    My forest welcomes your sad days too.

    @Rose113 sending you the biggest of hugs. it's perfectly okay for it to hurt again around the anniversary - i think it's ultimately part of the grief process. remember to be kind to yourself and we are all here for you

    ppl dont always need advice. sometimes all they rly need is a hand to hold. an ear to listen. and a heart to understand them. 🧸
