How to get over depression after a friend's death?

screw councelors they dont really do much help… I recently lost my brother it has been 6 months now but im not even close to being over it the place he died is a place where I used to go hang out everyday I hated going there at first but then I realised I will see him again I know its hard and I know it hurts but no matter what he will always be with you if you have a close friend talk to them even if they knew nothing about your friend who passed away they can help just hang in there and be strong do you really think your friend wants to see you like this?? also writing letters help even tho you will never be able to give them to him its a way to get out what your trying to say to him it will make you feel better and also he will know whats on your mind

thanks, all 3 of ya’ll. I mean I knw death is apart of life, but it’s hard. I didn’t eat for almost a 2 months after he died, but I’m eating a lil now, not like I used to but I am eating. he wasn’t in the same grade as me, but we were really good friends, and I loved him to death. what makes it worse was I had a crush on him, and I had wrote him a note telling him,a and I was planning on giving it to him the day I found out he had been killed in a car reck. The principla had gotten the whole school in the lunch room that day and when the told us, I fell to the ground and started crying. and then some ahole was making jokes about it, and I told my friends to get that lil bi*ch away from me before I kicked his a. I mean, james meant soo much to me, and it’s just really hard to deal with all this, and then my mom don’t even understand it.

the best way to get over depression is talk to one of your school counselors or ask your mom if she can take you to a counselor. sometimes just talking about it will help! the only way your mom will know you need help with this is to tell her you need help! It’s not easy getting over a death, especially when the person is young! My neice died when she was 8 hours old and my great grandma died a couple of months later. the only way I got over it was talking to a counselor and she just listened to me and told me what I could do to cope with it in a HEALTHY manner.
