When Friendship Becomes a Ghost Story
Grief defies categorization, especially when it falls outside society's recognized hierarchy of loss. When Russell took his own life, I found myself in an uncharted territory-mourning a friend in a world that reserves its deepest sympathy for family bereavements. Playing what I called "My Friend's Not Dead" became my first instinct, creating a bubble of denial while at a literary festival in Australia. I told no one, becoming uncharacteristically social and outgoing, as if shedding my usual self allowed temporary escape from the crushing weight of reality. This wasn't simple avoidance but a necessary buffer-the mind's way of saying "not yet." But denial, like all grief stages, offers only temporary shelter from the storm. The fragility of this protection became apparent during a book club discussion when someone shouted about suicide. Reality intruded, forcing me to confront not just Russell's death but the nature of his choice. That night, three vivid dreams visited me: walking along abandoned train tracks to an uncrossable barrier; seeing Russell swimming happily with sea creatures; and finding my stolen jewelry returned but damaged-revealing the subconscious processing already underway.
