well my friend killed himself the other day so its been a stressful week. with a memorial service, open casket viewing, funeral and burial, ive smoked like 4 times the ciggarettes i usually do. but right after the burial i got some 40s and just got piss drunk. is that disrespectful? i mean, it helped me forget things for a couple hours but i have this guilty feeling like that is insulting his memory.
I thought that was what people did after funerals. Granted, I live in redneckville USA, and we think that just about anything is a reason to party, even if it's a sad party.
I'm REALLY sorry for you loss, man. Especially at your age. I think a lot of people close to those who commit suicide experience guilt feelings. It's like a secondary effect of it. I would try not to beat myself up. You're going through a grieving process, and it's ok to take time off for yourself during it. I'm SO sorry. And keep talking and getting your feelings out there.
Not disrespectful at all. Get drunk and celebrate his life. It's a shame that he had to die so young.
no, not disrespectful word of caution though - just be careful from falling down and just drinking your problems away.
Well it's not the best thing to do (for your own safety) But that isn't disrespecting him in any way, If he was a drinker he'd probably be drunk as fuck with you if he was still here. Sorry about that man
if me or my friends died im pretty sure the living ones would have a very long binge. i think its quite respectable.
thanks guys, just wanted to make sure i wasnt being disrespectful at all. and its true, he would probably be there drinking right along with me. it just sucks. havnt cried in years but i just broke down at the burial. thanks for all the consolances guys
