my brother left for boot camp, i miss him?

my brother just left for boot camp about 6 hrs ago and i cannot stop crying.

he is my best friend, i never really noticed that until the moment he left.

i never told him how much i love him and how proud of him i am.

we actually got into a fight before he left and i feel horrible about it.

i always do that, get into fights with him and regret it later on.

after boot camp he has to go to some school, he will be gone for 6 months.

i have never felt so sad and upset as i feel now. i cant stop thinking about how long it will be before i get to see him. how can i stop feeling so sad? him and I live together. we both moved out of my parents and have lived together for like 4 years now. even as i write this, i cant help but cry remembering all the good and bad times we had together. i miss him so much. how do i stop feeling this way??

    It is natural to mourn the loss of a friend even if it is just for six months. Don't worry things will get better in time and six months will flash by. Chin up Jason all is good.

    My brother left for boot camp today, I know exactly how you feel. It hasn't even been 24 hours and I already can't hold my tears. I don't know how this can be any easier but I guess it helps to think that at least he's inside the country somewhere safe, I know it hurts a lot but remember this is what they want to do so you just have to be supportive.
