I so agree with what you are saying…after my darling friend died (just over a year ago) and I was out walking - if I struck up a conversation with a stranger I’d bring her into it - every single time. I needed to hear myself talking about her, she was still with me. We only met each other back in 2006, we were both grandmothers. Our chats covered every subject - no holds barred. Never thought she would go just yet. I miss her candour, love, laughter. My friend.

Do you find it hard to know where to put that energy/love that you once gave her? I feel like I never know what to do with that time and I carry this huge box that I can never open but I have to carry it with me forever.

My best friend died 15 years ago.. i still cry and miss him so much. When we met in college he went home and told his mom he finally had a sister and he called me Sissy.. he was the big brother i never had. Nobody understands the gaping hole in my soul, how i long to hear his laugh or say "it'll be alright" about whatever i was bothered with in the moment. I miss you David, my brother forever💜time changes nothing, my grief is never over. It just softened a bit. Hugs and love to all walking this awful lonely path.

I lost my best friend when we were 24. I mourned him for 10 years and felt crazy for that. No one understood our relationship and my loss. I’m 68 now and still miss him and think about him.

My best friend of 18 years passed away from an aortic dissection last Thursday, and I don’t know how I am going to live life without him. I’ve lost my father in my adolescent years, my grandma in the pandemic and now my best friend. This grief doesn’t feel like the others though. It hurts in a place of my heart that I never knew even existed. Thank you for this video. It hasn’t even been a week and I’m already seeing who really cares. If my bff was my romantic partner or a family member, I feel like I would receive a little more sympathy than I am now. My heart is with all that are or have gone through the same.

Thank you so much for this heartfelt video. My best friend of over 20 years died Aug 2023 after a very brief illness (2mths). I feel Like I’m struggling more even now almost six months later. I sympathize with everything you said💕 Especially when she was the one I always turned to and now that she’s gone, I try to think of how she would handle it if the roles were reversed. I just miss and love her so much! Thank you and I’m so very sorry for your loss. I totally get it. Much love to you❤

I'm here because I recently had a dream about my best friend who I knew for almost 30 yrs. He died almost 14 yrs ago and I believe I accepted it. But in this dream I was looking for him to show him the restaurant I found he would like. I woke up feeling so sad and my thoughts were no one else could appreciate it but him. When you grow together with someone you have your shared private jokes, almost your own language. Its lost when they leave.

This is just how I feel, I lost my best friend last year and the worst thing is that her family didn't even invite me to her funeral, they just went with it and excluded me, I realized over a post that Luisiana died, and now whenever I'm having a bad day people expect me to feel better by telling me she was not my sister or my mother. But she was like a sister to me, she was always there and was the only person I really trusted. I spent beautiful and wonderful five days by her side. I can't talk about her to anyone because they think I'm exaggerating and that I should just move on, but it's hard, and I can't help but feel like I'm betraying her when I feel happy or go through something which would have made us both happy. I guess I've not been able to fully mourn her.

My best friend passed away the year this video was aired. I have never recovered since then. Not sure if I may ever, but to know others have experienced despair as such as I, to this degree of everlasting internal and external sadness; reensuees me that our Heavenly reunion will be worth it when that day comes. The journey now is to not shorten my time I have left and instead, continue to live out her legacy as my soul friend would wish for me to do. Lovely video, I commend you for your strength.

I’m 7 months in after losing my teenage son’s dad (ex husband but also my best friend for nearly 20 Years) I see my youngest and he’s looking more and more like his dad and it crushes my soul how unfair it feels that they have to live without him now.. I feel guilty for grieving so hard when they seem to be doing better than I am.. there isn’t a day that goes by that my chest isn’t aching from the pain and I wonder how much longer it’s going to last or if I’ll always hurt like this…

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. It really goes far for people who are looking for resources which validate their own experiences, just like the video title says. I know for me it is similar, I had to put my grief on hold while I helped my Best friends widow deal with her own day to day activities, funeral arrangements, support. Even to this day I don't feel like my grief was validated, even though I had known my best friend for over 20 years. Him and his family (they are all gone now), played an integral part in my life but I felt as though I had the smallest claim for grief out of everyone (though internally it was the greatest claim). Thank you again for making this video. I hope people who need it can find it when they need to.

in a little over a month it will be five years since I lost my best friend. She was high and I sent her home in a cab. She later died that night. I still hold myself responsible for her dying, and everyone says the same thing, it's not your fault. You didn't make her do that, you could have been with her when it happened blah blah blah. I don't care. I still think it could have been different. I just feel so alone, guilty, sad and lonely constantly. She was only 27

Thank you for sharing this video. I relate deeply to this after losing my best friend of 15 years so suddenly in 2019. The pain is still fresh and real. I feel like I should have come a long way already in my healing journey, but there are still incredibly difficult days where I feel so incredibly lonely and completely empty. I wear her loss like a missing ribcage. She was my safe place second to none, and we had our own unique universe where we held each other in utmost love, respect, and craziness. I miss that and want it back - in the same dimension it had been. I would love to be part of any support group that would validate this lifelong pain.

I came to KZfaq trying to find some solace for the grief that I'm feeling that nobody seems to understand. My name is Jess, so finding this video felt like my best friend Kristin reaching out to me. She died almost three months ago. We lived together and most of her stuff is still at my house so I can't escape the memories and the emotions that all of her things bring up for me. I often feel like her death was my fault because of a complicated series of events that ended with me calling 911 later than I should have and for a different reason than what was actually needed. I miss her so much every day and it feels like even my boyfriend doesn't really want me to talk about it anymore. I often resent her boyfriend because he received an incredible outpouring of support when she died and it felt like I just had to tamp down what I was feeling and move on. Thank you for making this channel and these videos, I hope it brings you and the people watching some relief.
