My best friend committed suicide

...See more We've been friends since elementary school and have known each other for almost 14 years. We had our ups and downs, breaks amd stuff like that but overall I can say without a doubt we understood each other the best than any of the people in our lives. There's honestly so much I could say about our relationship, things that I'm thankful for and things that I seriously regret etc. but I don't wanna make the text unreasonably long. Anyway, she committed suicide around a month ago and I totally have no idea how to deal with it. I feel lonely and broken, I still refuse to believe I will never see or hear from her again. Everything reminds me of her and I keep thinking about her almost the whole day ever since I found out she passed. One of the things that pains me a lot in this situation, besides her death of course, is the fact that her mother didn't even care to tell me about her death nor her funereal (after high school she moved to another city but she'd still visit our hometwon time to time and we wuld keep up with each other online. we went on a trip this summer together). I don't wanna paint myself a victim in this situation but it upsets me so much that i didn't get to say my last goodbyes to her. Overall her suicide is taking a serious toll on my mental health. It's especially hard to deal with when I'm trying to fight depression myself. How do I deal with this loss in a healthy way?
