Have you lost a loved one
I’m 42 and luckily so far only lost my grandad when I was 10
One day hopefully in distant future might lose parents and don’t know if I’ll cope
I’ve lost parents, grandparents, a best friend, and a couple of other friends.
You’ll get through it. It’ll hurt like hell but you will. There isn’t a choice, no matter what you do or don’t do it’s going to happen. Time will make things easier, not better but easier.

I lost my Dad,(heart gave out) my cat (just went missing one day), A friend to suicide ( a girl I went out with a few times, bipolar 2) and my Aunt (skin cancer) all in a three year period in that order. I really haven’t handled it well on so many levels and still grieving. Are more but those are still fresh. Oh lost a childhood friend at 16 (hit by a train). Granddad at 14, etc etc etc. I think it’s the worst of aging as I get older more people I know are dying

I am 24. 3 years ago, I had a miscarriage and then my grandfather passed away the day after. 1000 mile drive to Texas (because he wanted to be buried there) while still undergoing the miscarriage. 6 months later my husbands great grandmother, whom I was very close to and took care of for 5 years passed… Then my grandmother who raised me, passed last December after we had a large disagreement… It was only after her death that I realized that she was symptomatic of psychosis my whole life…
I have survived. It still hurts, but, time will heal.

I’ve lost both sets of grandparents of my mother and father. my step father’s mother is still alive and very old but she has dementia and doesn’t know where she is. I lost several close friends . one electrocuted badly but lived a few miserable years before dying. a friend with a sudden headache and found an inoperable tumor , he was dead soon after arriving at the hospital. Tony, a schizophrenic that killed himself, my book is dedicated to Tony. In high school there was Adam, a druggie stoner dude in about my junior year of high school…I had a dream he was dying the same time he died. (according to the newspaper the next morning.)
I lost my dad on my birthday 7 years ago. The rest of my extended family was not in my life. The only other death that had any effect on me besides my dad was a friend/enemy who committed suicide 14 years ago.

Yes. Both of my parents. I’ve begun to see how much death is a part of life.

I haven’t lost anyone… I usually tag them and track them… so I can find them again… 
Sorry about that…
In all reality… I have lost a cousin to suicide and my Grandma died.
I have a feeling everyone has had to go through the process of dealing with a death… circle of life.
I’ve lost my grandparents. I couldn’t imagine losing my parents that would …will probably kill me.
It’s very scary to think if I lost parents I would be alone in the world my siblings are married living 5 hour drive away. I still have issues with schiz
