My best friend since childhood died last year and that just destroyed me. Lost my mom just a couple months later which made things worse, but not as much as everyone thinking losing my mom was the only major loss I've had in the last year. I hate how much losing my friend seems to just get ignored when talking to even my therapist about all the things that has happened to me over the last year.

It never stops feeling weird and shocking to me how many people I've known that died before age 30.

First you go to birthday parties, then party parties, then graduation parties, bachelor/bachelorette parties, weddings, your friend's kid's parties then funerals

I'm 60 and gave seen a lot of water under that bridge. A really good friend of mine who is in their early 40s and just got a cancer diagnosis this week. It never gets easier.

Well I'm guess I'm lucky that I don't have friends.
