Hi,
I lost my brother nearly 2 moths ago. I really don't know how to express my self right now but I feel a combination of every " stage of grief" possible. I feel like I'm going crazy. I miss him so much. I have so many personal problems. I feel so alone like no one can truly understand me! I can't evem begin to say what goes on in my mind. I feel distant from everyone yet I put a front on. My best friend has moved (he was her first cousin) and gotten hitched. From the begging all she would say I'm so scared of u go down a bad spiral I'm worried about u rather then saying im here for every stage. It's almost like she knows I'm a important part of her life and doesn't want my mood to damper her life! Now if I'm a bit different like my "mask" has come she keeps asking if I'm ok and says did something happen to u did someone upset u I keep saying good. It posses me off its like can't u understand I losty brother it's common sense I will have my bad days and good days!!!!' I feel like I need to act normal Infront of ppl just so I won't damper the mood and once I seem a bit sad they ask did something happen. I'm dying inside so many other things have happened and this is all in the time my bro past away!!!!!!!

Hello, I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my brother jan 1 he was 25. I can't tell you I know your exact pain but I can assure you that I know how the hurt is unimaginable and I wouldn't wish it upon anyone. I still struggle with MANY questions, and do feel like I'm going crazy as well but I assure you we are not crazy. You will get through this just keep your eyes open for signs(cardinals, coins, songs). These have been extremely helpful to me. You are not alone... Keep your heart and mind open.

I lost my sister on June 27. You aren't going crazy. You're grieving. I've had an agonizing day. It's one of the many horrible aspects of the grief process.

Hi Anon. I agree with others, it is not craziness, it is grief - something that many people have no idea about, and can't seem to understand, if they have been fortunate and so far not lost someone they love very much. My sister passed away suddenly 15 months ago, and I too am often "in every stage of grief". And I think when we're grieving, it DOES make other problems even more difficult to bear and to cope with. My heart goes out to you and to everyone who has replied to you. The pain of losing a sibling cuts so deeply, yet there are often few people we can speak with about our grief, for fear of adding to their grief or just bringing others down. I think we need to be easy on ourselves, best we can, and accept that we will feel so much sorrow, and sometimes regrets, for a very long time. I try to be grateful for the few who understand or can bear to hear about my loss of my sister, and I try to not worry too much about all the people who just don't seem to understand. I am sorry that you lost your brother, and I hope that you are finding some ways to take it easy on yourself, and trying to take good care of yourself, and finding some small things that can help or comfort you, even a little, every day.
