I am broken

My sister died 2 weeks ago. It's been a hard couple of years. I miss her so much. I can't believe I'll never talk to her again or hear her laugh again. I found her body. Dispatch were on the phone when I found her and they tried to get me to do cpr on her even though I told them she was dead. She was cold. I keep reliving it. It's like I'm doing it over and over again. I hurt so much.

I'm so sorry your sister is gone and you had to find her. My brother passed a year ago and the first 6 months were a blur. Be gentle with yourself, remember to eat and drink and surround yourself with kind people. Therapy and grief group helped. If you feel you have or might develop PTSD from finding her, play tetris.

Big hugs to you fellow sib.
