I’m sorry to hear that, my prayers are with you. Loss is never easy so give yourself grace as you work through your grief and allow yourself to feel all of the emotions. Lean on any support systems you have and remind yourself daily of the work you’ve put in for 7 months of sobriety. :heart:‍:adhesive_bandage::heart:

Grieving is tough but necessary

My deepest condolences to you. It's so unfair to lose someone so sudden. I echo a comment above about honoring them by being your best self. I'll also say it's ok if you're angry feel it and work through it. Another thing is that your loved ones' suffering is over. We truly do not know the battles everyone faces.

Im so so sorry about this . We lost my aunt to suicide in my 20s . There's no easy answer to it and it's almost impossible to see coming . My thoughts and prayers r with you . But u relating tht to us is important ... not talking about it just keeps the pain inside . We're here to talk if u need it . Peace

Pray for their family. Everyone doesn’t get to have sobriety. You have to want it more than your need to use it sorry for your loss and be grateful you’re here and it wasn’t you.
