Hi My name is Liz1965. A couple of months ago I lost a good friend of mine. Since then I have been depressed and miss him so much. I do not have any close friends and I have been lost and lonely. Been dealing with self harm urges since his death. I am 52 years old. Any inputs I will be grateful to have. Thanks.

I am very sorry for your loss. Have you thought about seeing a therapist to process this?

Thanks so much. I am seeing a therapist to help me process this and she also suggest about a support group on line. I like this place so I came here. Thanks

Hello Liz: I'm sorry for your loss. Here's a link to an article on HelpGuide.org on coping with grief & loss:

https://www.helpguide.org/articles/g...f-and-loss.htm

Perhaps it can be of some help.
Thanks for this!

I am sorry for the loss of your friend. It must leave an empty place inside. ((hugs)) Hope you find friends here as I have.

We have a small group that meets for Depression and Grief support on Thursdays at 8PM please feel free to attend (reminder to others that someone needs to have 5 approved posts to get in chat).
