depression help: I now stand on my own 2 feet, my world seems so empty.

Alice N.

I now stand on my own 2 feet, my world seems so empty.

The world i have grown to hate has suddenly been flung at me. I just want everyone here to know that my brothers last words were “Laura, your a good kid, and i hope i have taught you what you need to know” then we just sat there as i watched the life slip out of his eyes, and he lay dead in my arms. he had a note on his table and i want to share it with you all

I am soon to depart this world
and watch is as it spins and twirls
and even though i live no more
i will live on in your heart
please don’t forget me
because only when i’m forgotten
will i truly be dead

please remember the good
remember the bad
remember the happy
remember the sad
remember the times we laughed in the sun
remember the times we were on the run
remember the times you stayed up crying
remember the times when mom was dying
but most of all…..remember me, remember us, remember everything

Sorry about your loved one leaving honey. Life is werd the way it works and i’m sure your feelig more alone in it now then you were before. Things will get better. I know it seems hopeless and all is in a spiral of loathing anf deression but life is always going to have to get better. It took me a year to get my life out of a slump from my ex leaving and my dogs dying and my beloved geat grandmama dying (rough year), but looking back it made me stronger. None of it was pleaset but i’m learning i can’t be perfect at any point in time. Ride the roller coaster of life and all its ups and downs. things WILL get better. Just keep smiling!

Thank you so much for sharing your brothers note, it says a lot about how he loved being around you and cared deeply for you. It is so hard to lose somebody you love,
I hope your pain will ease with time.

I’m so sorry about your loss. I have no idea what u could be going through. But all I could tell you is stay strong, that’s what he would have wanted you to do. And remember the words he told you,
“Laura, your a good kid, and i hope i have taught you what you need to know”
Keep them word’s in your thought’s and you get through any and every thing.
Hope fully that help’s you, but now i need your help. Please read my message and tell me what you think i should do.

Help me with: I need good advice to tell an old friend.
