Belongs to: Therapist wishes you were here. (Pink Floyd)
So I just lost a friend who I’d been friends with for 30 years. We went through separate terrible childhood traumas and got each other through them. We fought through addictions together and sobriety. We continued to try to navigate mental health issues together throughout our lives. She died 2 years ago after a long long health battle. I have her ashes in an urn on a shelf in my house. Honestly I’m kinda lost without knowing she’s here on earth somewhere. This song kills me every time. Saw Pink Floyd in 1994. I’m going to see David Gilmour in November 30 years later in NYC. I really do wish she was here.
I’m so sorry to hear about your loss. It’s clear how deeply your friendship meant to you, and I can only imagine the void it has left in your life. The bond you shared, supporting each other through such profound challenges, is truly beautiful and speaks volumes about the strength of your connection.
The way you hold her ashes close shows just how much she still means to you, and it’s heartwarming to see that you’re carrying her memory with you.
Going to see David Gilmour must be both a tribute to your friend and a chance to celebrate the incredible journey you both shared. It’s okay to feel lost; healing takes time, and it’s a testament to your love for her that you feel so deeply. Surround yourself with that love, and remember that she’ll always be a part of you, guiding you in spirit. Sending you so much compassion and strength as you navigate your healing journey! keep going
Keeping her memory alive and keeping her close to you is so kind to your friend and shows just how much you loved and still love her. I can’t imagine the kind of grief that loss can bring, especially when you two were so close and went through a lot of heavy times in your lives together. Recovery and healing from addiction is not an easy thing to do, and I’m so glad you had someone with you to see you through and to support you, and you were such a loving and caring friend to love and support them back. I’m so sorry you’ve lost such a valuable light in your life.
Music can help carry a lot of feelings and memories for us. I’m glad you have songs that comfort you or help articulate a certain emotion or feeling. Taking her with you in your mind and keeping her in your heart is such an honor to her, because I’m sure she would do the same for you and bring you to a concert wherever she is too. Thank you for sharing, you’re such a strong person for carrying on and making it through another year. We’re here for you and to listen, my friend, and we love you so much! I hope the show is better than you can imagine it to be💜
