How3 Do You Get Over The Death Of A Friend?

Recently, A friend of mine that I have not kept that close of a contact with, took her own life! We are not close friends but we did care about one and other. Those who really knew her said that she had been contemplating taking her life for years because her brother did the same thing! But his was due to a sugar inbalance that was not detected because medicine had not the knowledge to deal with it at the time.

I am so so devasted by this as it has only been two weeks since since it happened. I am having such wicked crying jags whenever I think about it. I am sure that in time that I will get over it. I am posting it here because I cannot afford grief conselling. So I am asking my online community to gather around me and help me as best they can. Thanks
