i dont know if this is at all relevant here to anyone here but me......but, after 4 years of 'dealing' with grief with a bottle ...of liquid,or tablets-or powders or crystals(chemicals)...
this womans death affected me deeply..i am younger-but i could be her......after a bit too much...youre body just says no.
however she died-she was a poly-addict.......in saying a prayer for her,i say one for myself...im still grieving my mother..im scared for my father

if anything positive comes from my 'empathy' with a dead woman i dont know......
there is help...but you have to bypass enablers and pubs....rarara
i need that help
AND I DONT WANT TO DIE.....

That's a pretty sad story, tashna. Those who dwell in sorrow, often sink in it. Many perish. We must move on.

The best way I have found to deal with situations like her death is to strengthen my resolve to remain sober, her disease killed her, I need to keep mine under arrest. If you find strength in her disease and death that is good, being depressed over it is not. You have lost nothing, nor do you have any responsibility for it, so why worry about it, simply learn from the mistakes of others as well as your own.

When I hear young people die of drugs or alcohol I feel really sad and its like a wake up call to me. Such a waste. These kind of events makes me stay sober more and more.

They say she emulated marilyn monroe. She even emulated her death - a sad, burnt out addict just existing where a beautiful, hopeful young woman once lived.

Well - what I learn from death (we have had 6 funerals this year already) is that we should all be living life to the full at this moment. Could be our turn any time at all........................... so get on with living.

Most of us die from our unchecked addictions.

I refuze to.
I do hope you will choose to live in recovery.
