Advice

Hey I'm not really sure where to start, but I lost my boyfriend / childhood friend this year to cancer I'm 24 , it was the hardest thing I've ever had to go through which I'm sure you can all relate too, I just feel so lost and lonely I don't have many friends in fact I don't even think I have one real friend I feel like I can't talk about him to them like they make me feel guilty for bringing him up like I'm not allowed to be sad, my mum has been amazing but we don't really show our emotions to each other so I just find my self putting on a brave face when really I feel dead inside, I just miss him so much I'm not really sure what to do x

    It really is hard for friends to know what to say .. some are worried they will say the wrong thing .. or make you upset ..

    We havnt learned to help others grieve yet .. the best way to cope is keep talking .. although it's upsetting too. It really helps you heal .. its like keeping him safe in your heart now, and take him with you on your journey through life.. you can always write to him .. put it all down, that's what I do when I lost my wonderful mum .. I'd even write Christmas cards and birthday cards and leave them where we scattered her ashes ... by a lovely tree .. 

    You can always come on here .. write anything . ... have a rant .. or chat .. and so many will know how you feel ..  your not alone ... sending you a vertual hug...  Chrissie x
