A few days ago, it would have been my sister's 23rd birthday. For those that don't know the story, my sister died of a drowning a few years ago and went through depression for a year and a half. I went to school that day knowing that it was her 23rd birthday. Either though I was in school, I couldn't do any work because I was completely distracted and I didn't talk to anyone because I was sad. When I got home from school, I sat in my room the rest of the day basically crying and thinking things like "Why did she have to die?" I didn't eat very much on that day and I felt sick as a dog from all of this crap I was going through. When I went to sleep, I had a dream about her death and the events that took place that day. I also have this same problem on May 7th, which is the day she died and on all of the major holidays such as Christmas and Easter.

What should I do about this problem?

Heh, if you're looking for relief from the depression, I'm afraid I can't offer you much help.

I know what it's like to lose a loved one, the best advice I can offer you is to remember the good times you had with your sister. Maybe have a special birthday party for her anyways, with a little cake.

Really, there's no advice I can offer to make it all better. I lost my father, and so I know a little how you feel. But always remember your sister, and celebrate her life, rather than mourning her death. She would've wanted it that way, I'm sure.

you know...your sister wouldn't want you to be this way (sad and stuff, etc)... in addition, i think your sister would probably want you to let go? 3+ years is quite a long time to grieve but well, that is your choice... not sure what else to say as you have heard the same stuff already...

so yeah, it is okay but maybe you should seek a for a way to move on...

Sorry to hear that
Unfortunately Death is a part of life. As hard as it may seem now eventually you will only be able to think of the happy memories.
For now I'd say as everyone else is saying, focus on the good memories and hold on to those because in doing this is may help you to cheer up.
If this doesn't work, Meditation should, it works for me when I need to clear my mind of all bad thoughts.
If you find none of this works maybe speak to a councillor let it all out, I find it's easier talking to a councillor than a person you know well because you have to explain everything and you can't leave anything out
Thats All the advice I have for now, and don't listen to what others say, it is undefined how long the grieving process should take. Let it take as long as it needs
