Heartbroken

General
I hadn't posted anything to my FA yet and wasn't sure if I wanted to do so but I feel ultimately I should.
A few days ago on October 1st, a very close mutual friend of mine and thatweirdo committed suicide and we have been absolutely devastated by the news.
It was only a few months ago that we went out to stay with him for a week at Anthrocon, and fuck, even less than a week ago that we were talking to him like nothing was wrong. It came as a huge shock to us and we're really struggling to pull through now but... we know we can make it. it's just really, really hard to say goodbye to someone so amazing that you've known for years so soon.
Rest in peace, 0ddball. We're really going to miss you.

I really hope you both can recover okay from this and remember to not be too hard on yourselves.
Grief is a horrific thing to go through and you don't owe anyone an explanation to how you feel.
I myself lost a close friend through them committing suicide a long time ago now. It must be 6-7 years now?
And I am still mourning my friend. You don't just simply get over something like this, you'll always still have
grief, which is the scary thing about it. But in time, you heal and learn to cope with it better. And remember that
there is no set time on when you "should" be recovered by. Like I said, denial held me in it's jaws for a good 4 years.
Please both of you take your time to heal, remember your friend and cherish the memories you had together.
Take as long as you need, even go on a hiatus from artwork and such if you must as your own health is a first here.
Once again I am so deeply sorry you and your friend have to go through this, and I send my condolences to your friend's
family also. Please stay safe and stay strong <3
*gently hugs* ❤
If you need a break, it's understandable- just understand we're here for you, buddy
May they both rest in peace and be remembered as great people.
