How I deal with loss/pain so it doesn't affect my daily life at all: pick a song that you can channel all your pain into and listen to it until you cry. Then whenever you start feeling depressed, use that song. This is psychological training so you can compartmentalize the pain while still facing the pain and not repressing it... Its VERY effective. You'll feel immediately better and then you can go on with your life until the next time you need the song. This works great if you're not a "natural crier" but still want to utilize the very effective coping mechanism of tears, but in a controlled way.

Hope this helps man!

Thank you Chelsea.

Anytime

For a person as talented as you are, you can probably channel all that grief and loss into writing a searingly emotional song for your departed friend. He probably would have liked that. Whatever you do, whichever way you face it, one thing to remember man: you're not alone.

Tomorrow I turn 25 so to ring in my quarter life crisis I'm getting completely obliterated tonight. Cheers.

Cheers.

You're planning on living until 100? Nice, I wish I had that kind of dedication.
