Dear Anita, thanks again for your response.

I would have told her, but I wouldn’t have told her that it was her fault. She also didn’t tell me that she overdosed because of me -just that she was really messed up at the time, and if I’d told her that I loved her at the time, she might not have felt so much like a waste of space. She later said that it wasn’t because of losing me per se but her own feelings of guilt at lying to both of us for so long that made her do that, but she wishes that I’d been there on the phone just talking instead of taking that break. She also later told me that she recognizes that it was a stupid thing to do, and that she didn’t want either of us to feel responsible for anything.
