Like a 6, but 4 because I fell back into my depression hard, suicidal thoughts and all. Hearing he’s gone still sounds wrong and unreal. Im trying to find peace within myself since I keep losing people I love.
I’m at a 6 for the most part. I’ve found that talking about my loss to people who don’t know LP’s music and what it meant to me has helped. At dinner a few days ago, I found out that a friend sitting next to me had lost two people who jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge, one who was despondent and one who wasn’t (at least to friends and family). The tough part is accepting that there’s some questions for which we’ll never have an answer.

I feel like I’m somewhere in between the last 4 stages. I’ve been dealing with a lot since July 20th and it’s hard to come to terms with everything. My ex boyfriend broke up with me just 3 days after Chester. Then a few weeks after, I had to break off my friendship with my best friend of 12 years. It’s been very difficult to cope with it all. I find myself not being able to reach the acceptance stage with Chester. But I know we can all get through this together.

They talk a lot about grief and depression in the video… One interesting thing is that when grieving, time runs slower. It’s been over two months, but for a grieving person it’s like two days.
I feel exactly like that.

I think I am just mixed with different stages. I thought I was already further but cried my eyes out yesterday again so definetely stage 4 if I would say one. But I have went from “I miss him so much, wish he was still alive” to “I feel so bad for the friends and family, they must be in so much pain”. I would have never ever believed this to he so hard

When i herd the News of chester passing i was at work doing a double and i immediately started to cry i couldn’t believe it .i though it was so sick joke
I keep my mind on hem. I got home and look on the new and it was true chester die. Why hem i feel like it was not far . To let a wonderful man die. I love everything about hem always will. Then i thought about mike and the band how they doing how they deal with his passing.
I know, I know what you mean. Unfortunately, it just happens to work like that. No matter what, you’ve gotta feel every, every emotion it throws at you. But, you know what, the good thing is that we all have each other, and Linkin Park. Nothing can ever change this. It just makes things lighter if not smaller.
Just remember that.
Sending lots of love and support.
Anger but working through we have to say it’s ok you’re gone yeah I’m deviated but I can’t ask why too much I’ll go through 2018 lost broken but never defeated
