Loss of a close friend of mine

[championphilyra]

Last year a friend of mine perished from a volcanic eruption known as the White Island Disaster. My school brought up the news and I refused to accept the news. Every day I would look through the school gates hoping that she would walk through the gates unscathed, but she never came back. The reality and the truth has hit me hard and ever since then I’ve been feeling depressed. Life just isn’t the same without her, and I still feel lost.

@championphilyra, I am so sorry to hear about your loss. It is understandable that you feel lost. Your feelings are normal and valid for what you have experienced. Our friendships are so important to us and to lose someone so suddenly and unexpectedly brings up so many emotions. I find journaling helps me make sense sometimes.
