How do you guys go about processing a friend's suicide?

[PurpleTree]

I haven’t had a close friend commit suicide.

I’d probably just binge watch non duality talks if it happened.

"nobody has ever lived, nobody has ever died"

Maybe your mind is trying to understand and make sense of the suicide, which is seemingly impossible.

Sorry for your loss.

I actually did get into nonduality around the time that my friend in school died from a drug overdose. She did it with a group of people at a house and they left her dead on the couch all alone.

This is her Obituary. It's strange to see people talk about her on instagram and wondering if she committed suicide or not, and whether or not she would go to heaven. It's unfortunate that she was born in such a country, she had a truly beautiful mind, a very rare kind of mind. Which is especially surprising given where she was born and raised.

Her family does not know about the reasons and I feel like it is not my place to tell them.

Yes, I have been thinking about this, wondering if death is real or not.

Sorry for your loss.

But you didn't actually lose her though in truth.

Talk to her in your alone time.

She hears you and you can ask her why and the answer will be given to you.

And you'd understand the why and you just have to be sure in your own heart that she's in a good place now not suffering anymore.

My emotions calmed down but I feel very unmotivated for life now. I feel like my goals in life are meaningless, and that there are no meaningful goals in life.

Let yourself go through a process of grief and reflection.

You'll come out of it and figure out what to do.

Don't worry about it.

All is well.
