My gran died over 7 months ago and i STILL can't get ova it. some days i just wana cry my eyes and and yearn to be hugged. i'm only 15 and we were quite close. i don't feel i can talk to my friend bout it n e more or they'll think i'm obsessed with it and am boring. why aren't i over it yet?

We don't really "get over it"... it just gets easier. You need to remember that she would not want you to be sad. She would want for you to get on with living. You will never forget the love she gave you and that is only right. Remember the good times. Life really is short and if you believe in heaven you know she is happy and in good hands.

Believe me it will get easier, I promise!

No. Everyone grieves in their own unique way. I've lost alot of people that i've loved in my life, and I don't think I will ever get over it. To me, the longer a person grieves, just shows how much they really did love that person, and misses them. Give yourself the rest of your life if you need to, and don't let ANYONE tell you that you should be over it.
