I am saddened by your loss.  This is a safe place to share, grieve, and learn.  The people here listen and care about you.  Most people simply do not understand what you are going through.  I'm praying for you comfort, healing, and peace through this.  You are welcome to share, ask questions, rant, whatever helps you to deal with this grief.  MartyT and others here, have some great resources to give you the tools you need to help you.  I am sorry.  My beloved wife passed away 2& 1/2 years ago and i'm still dealing with it.  I was in such shock for a long time.  This place listened and has helped me and many others through the grief and healing process. - Shalom, George

I am so sorry to hear you lost your twin sister.  My daughter's friend passed away a few years ago, leaving behind his twin brother, and I know how hard it was for him to live without his twin.  Marty has given you vast resources which I hope you'll begin with.  I hope you can find a grief support group, you might contact hospice if you can't find one.  I'd also make an appointment with a professional grief counselor.  Some insurance companies will cover some visits, also some charge by your income level.

I'm just so sorry.  I lost my husband 12 years ago and I know what it is to be without the person you love and are closest to in the world.  Your twin was always there for you in your life, and it's a huge hole, a huge adjustment to try to live without her.

Thank you kayc, im so sorry about your husband, that would be devastating to go through :( going through the same thing, or an instant message chat room where people can talk 24/7
This is like my last ditch effort reaching out... I can't live without her.. Just been praying to meet someone who understands this heartbreak and loss of soul. 

The few family members that remain alive are in Arizona. I'm all alone here and barely hanging on by a thread. If ANYONE knows of any free support groups here in OC, or knows a twin who lost their twin, PLEASE contact me anytime. 
 

I use KIK messenger (an android/iPhone messaging app) for the majority of communication. the username to look up after downloading KIK messenger is: higherdimensions

Another method of communication is through email: tashatalks12@yahoo.com 

OR if anyone prefers to talk on this website, that'll suffice. 

It's just so empty and lonely and devastating  losing her.... every day is black and gray...

I did go through the resources provided by Marty, and they didn't help with what I was searching for., which is a support group that goes on during the day and isn't affiliated with a church... unable to find some. I did call around a few hospices that charged money for the help; and Dee (who is a grief counselor in Arizona) called and found a hospice that seemed like they wanted to help, and said they'll call us back.. and never did

I'm so sorry you're having such a hard time finding the support you're looking for.  It's such a unique situation but there has to be more out there going through similar loss.  I hope you find the right group.  keeping hanging in there.

I do know from my own grief journey that we go through our loss alone, although it helps to connect with others facing similar loss and know you're understood.  I do hope you find it.

@MegDeLine  I am so sorry, I can't imagine as I'm not a twin, but I lost my sister 1 1/2 years ago.  Can you tell us more?
