Title: Feeling robbed by my dead BPD sister tonight Post by: ropend on January 25, 2016, 10:20:15 PM Not sure if I've already been over this but after she died her laptop became mine and I learned with liked many of the same movies and music.
I feel robbed knowing that she never shared this side of herself with me. What the heck? We could have enjoyed talking about things we had in common.

I'm sorry ropend... .this must be extremely triggering.

We could have enjoyed talking about things we had in common. Ropend, I do feel for you. A terrible trigger and a tragic loss. But maybe see it as flattery. We tend to copy or mimic what impresses us. So maybe this was her way of flattering you ? Her way of hugging you goodbye ? There are grief councillors (available on the NHS for example). But for what’s its worth, your thoughts and wishes sound normal, understandable. Don’t suffer alone. Big hug from me. |
