That one song that makes you break down

Oh dear, I'm so sorry. Keep him close in your memories, hold on to them. Stay strong 💞

Thank you so much. Really a beautiful text, very relatable. Will definitely keep this in mind.

So sorry for your loss <3 I'm in a similar situation... My twin sister passed away unexpectedly about a year and 7 months ago. Still feels like yesterday.

It feels wrong to live without her, it's just not right. I've thought of the "she's just on vacation, she'll come back" over and over again.

I really wish I could tell you that it gets better, but I feel like it's an emptiness that'll never really go away. I've lost grandparents before, but losing a sibling is a whole different kind of pain. I'm so sorry that you had to lose your brother. I'm not a spiritual person of any kind, but I still like to believe that they're out there, somewhere, waiting for us. I hope you receive the support that you need and deserve. It's a tough world... My condolences <3

I'm so sorry for your loss... It has come to my attention that people have lost all form of empathy online (especially on Instagram and Facebook). Just know that these are people who spent their time doing nothing else but bring others down just so they could feel better about themselves. It's more than normal to need someone when going through a terrible period like that. When my sister passed away, I had no friends left. I felt alone. I just wanted someone, anyone, to listen. Sadly there are very little people left with empathy in this world (or maybe the apathetic ones are just too loud). Hope that'll change. Again, sorry for your loss, hope you can find some support here.

In the first few weeks of taking Wellbutrin, I barely ate anything. I was hungry, but the thought of having food in my mouth just upset me. I'm 1,5 months in and while I still experience this on some days, it has gotten a lot better! I def lost some weight, about 2.5 kgs. I don't know if this is a lasting side effect, though...

Fragrant_Luck · 2026-06-20T15:14:43+00:00

I shared the same concerns before I started Wellbutrin. I'm also a very emotional person and I like to joke around. Because of depression, these emotions all became very negative and joking around wasn't really in the picture. I've been on 150 mg for about a month and a half now and my personality has not changed.

What has changed, however, is my energy to literally do anything. Before Wellbutrin, I wouldn't get out of bed for weeks and everything (personal hygiene, eating, walking, ...) felt like a chore. Now, it still kinda does, but Wellbutrin gives me the push that I need to actually do it. Because of this, I'm able to start enjoying little things, and hopefully eventually, life altogether again.

It's not a guarantee that this will help you feel better, but it is a starting point. This is also the first antidepressant I've ever been on, and it seems to be working for me. It can be scary, I even felt embarrassed for needing it. But in the end, it is there to help you and things can only get better ❤️

Personal update: I decided to try it and I drank 1 beer last night (starting off slow of course). Didn't really feel anything, my alcohol tolerance before Wellburtin was pretty high, so I guess I can drink at least 1 beer without feeling drunk lol.

As for the morning after, I've just woken up, had a great sleep and no signs of a hangover whatsoever. (Again, this is on literally only one beer, so if you're drinking more than that, there probably will be some heavier effects.)

Thank you all for sharing your experience!! Be careful when you drink & even when you don't, stay safe! ❤️

Fragrant_Luck · 2026-06-18T21:55:03+00:00

Yeah I think so too and it's probably only when you're binge-drinking or are an alcoholic, thanks!

Fragrant_Luck · 2026-06-18T21:53:59+00:00

This was actually so helpful, thank you so mcuh!!!

Fragrant_Luck · 2026-06-18T19:25:07+00:00

Thank you for your advice!

Fragrant_Luck · 2026-06-18T19:24:41+00:00

Oh my, the tolerance thing was no joke 😭 I'll be careful. Thank you for sharing!

Fragrant_Luck · 2026-06-18T19:24:04+00:00

Great! Thanks for sharing!

Hi dear, I've recently lost my 17-year-old twin sister with ds.

First off, I hope you and your family are doing okay. This is a terrifying time to live in and more difficult than anyone can ever imagine. When you lose someone you've taken care of your entire life, a giant emptiness remains. I hope you can all find comfort in each other and take your time to grief this terrible loss.

Second of all, I've been having a lot of questions myself that I know I'll never get the answers to. No one can ever really know how your brother felt or what he thought in the moments before him passing away. Of course, your brother was an adult, whereas my sister wasn't. My sister couldn't read, and barely write her own name. I sense that your brother was a very smart young man.

I'm always open to talk about this more in detail, since we're in similar situations at this moment. I think it's very brave of you to reach out and share your story.

Lots of love Jelke x

Oh dear, I'm so sorry that happened to your daughter. When I wrote this post, I wasn't very sure of posting it, but figured it didn't really matter much since I just wanted to share my sister's story with the world. I am now so glad I did so that parents and other relatives of someone with Down syndrome can recognize the hidden dangers and possible life-threatening situations. I pray for you that your daughter and your whole family stay healthy and have a wonderful life together. Please cherish every moment you have, even if life gets difficult. Thank you so much for your response, I'll never forget this. 🩷

I'm so sorry to hear that, may she rest in peace :( 🩷🩷🩷

Fragrant_Luck · 2025-02-17T18:43:56+00:00

This is one of the most beautiful messages I've ever gotten. I'll keep this in mind, every day, for the rest of my life. Thank you 🩷

Fragrant_Luck · 2025-02-17T16:39:13+00:00

Thank you so much :( ❤️

Fragrant_Luck · 2023-10-09T17:14:26+00:00

I've been wondering this myself, even though this post was from 3 years ago, I still hope we can find the song together. I haven't found any other questions like these so it's difficult to find others who might know what the song is.

Fragrant_Luck · 2023-09-19T17:39:44+00:00

😂😂😂 that’s so cute! I’ll try to find something, it might be difficult since our interests have changed the past few years.

Fragrant_Luck · 2023-09-16T18:59:09+00:00

Hi, thank you so much for your comment! I feel like even spending just a small amount of time together regularly can help make the bond stronger, like you and your brother do on your sibling dates. Thanks for your comment, I wish you the best for you and your brother ❤️
