I'm really struggling with the loss of my sister, she died suddenly last August and although I have grieved, the last few weeks I can't stop thinking about her all the time and how I will never see or hug her again.

Not sure what I hope to gain from this post as I know I will never get over it but I wanted to see if anyone has any words of wisdom / coping tips / know any decent and legit mediums I can try to use and communicate with my sister 💛

I'm so sorry for your loss OP.

It's the suddeness the makes it so difficult to actually come to terms with the reality of not seeing a loved one again.
My second DH went out to work on his first working day after the Christmas/ New Year break , many years ago now, and had a heart attack and died on the station platform on his way there. The first we knew was the police knocking on the door. For a long long time I lived my life expecting him to come through the door home from work.
I'm afraid OP it just takes time. I agree with the people who say the first year is definitely the hardest. And gradually over time the good memories of your sister will gradually take over from the sense of loss.

So sorry for your loss Flowers It really is so hard. I too am struggling at the moment. Have you thought about contacting Cruse Bereavement Support?
There is also a bereavement board where there might be some ideas for coping strategies if you don’t want to contact Cruse.

A few words that sort of make sense of it all on days when I’m not feeling so low.
