My girlfriend overdosed on pain killers. She was addicted. Even tried to hide her addiction from me. I got a call from her nephew whole I was at work they found her dead that mourning. While I miss her I'm also angry at her. How do I cope with this. I see a Counslor but besides that its not like I can talk about her death. Her family wouldn't appreciate that. To make matters worse we were co workers. Everyone at work knows she died now. That's where we met. Since her death I've been drinking heavily. I don't know what else to do
My girlfriend died of a overdose?

We were dating for almost a year. She told me she was in a recent car accident when we first dated that was her excuse for using pain killers. After her death I learned from her family that car accident happend 2 years ago

Even though the wreck happened two years ago, she could have still been having pain from it. I know someone that was in a wreck over 9 years ago and she still has to take medication for it. But you have to find your own ways to cope with it. But I do not drinking is NOT the answer to this. Trust me. Continue seeing your counselor. Everything happens for a reason, even if we don't understand it. You probably won't ever get over this, but you can find ways to deal with it.
Is this somethjng you've been through? The first month I was so depressed now I'm just angry at her like she abandoned me. Wether this was intentional or not I feel like she chose her addiction over people that cared about her. If she died more natural causes out of her control I would feel more depressed and hopeless then angry. At some point I'll probably love again as horrible as it sounds. In some ways this type of death is making me move forward with my life quicker. It feels like a break up. She abandoned me and now it's up to me to live on. Is this a sick way of thinking? This is not a natural death I'm dealing with?
