    My grandpa recently passed away, and each day I feel more and more depressed. I don't know what to do.I think I may start smoking again. I keep thinking that maybe I would feel better if I hurt myself. Can anyone help me?

    You need to stop thinking about. Yeah, you miss him. But he's looking down on you, and if you're not happy, then how can he be? You need to celebrate the life that he had here. Tell stories about your grandfather, sing some of your favorite songs!

    My grandpa and I were very close and when he passed away I took a picture of him and my grandma holding me after I was baptized and I have it on my mirror in my room. Everyone morning I look at it and say good morning to them, maybe kiss it, and I so the same thing when I go to bed.

    Being depressed and wanting to leave because of it, or hurt yourself because of it, isn't good. A death is hard to deal with, exspecially if you were close to the person but the best thing you can do is celebrate the life that they had. Look up at the stars at night, tell him you miss him, and tell him that you love him, and be happy!! Crying sometimes is ok too, but don't hurt yourself sweetie because that's not going to take the pain away. This is a natural feeling after someone dies, everyone goes through it for the most part, and you'll be ok. Just.....celebrate!

    Hope I helped! Hang in there!

    My great Grandma died a week before the pope did... Unlike some of you, it didn't affect me too much... She was a screwy woman... Anyways... I wouldn't go back to smoking if i were you... It's not worth getting lung cancer because someone you loved died... They wouldn't want that
