I had depression last year and when ppl have depression, its really easy to suclude yourself from the rest of the world to only other depressing thing. The fact that she died from drugs probably makes you feel closer to her in a weird way. Idk if you were ever thinking of suicide (if not, GOOD), but if you have the fact that she died from an un-natural reason makes you feel closer, being depressed. pot is obviously not gonna help, and u should get depression meds (get them perscribed tho...) and try to hang out with really nice,cool people who aren't into drugs and have a good purpose to life to help you get out of your depression. don't worry about it. Its' normal
