Of course its right to greive, and its gonna hurt me. but before, this kid put me into depression, cause he was suicidal, and i heard him tell me goodbye and try to kill himself in front of me so many timess.. i feel as though i am goin back into depression, i went through it before, but its so hard to get out of it.

i'm really sorry about your friend. i kinda had something similar happen to me. he ended up dieing to. and i never told anyone. i became very depressed to. counceling helped me. it was just a good way of venting my feelings. counceling may help. and they may even give you some medicine. just remember that people care about you. that helped me. knowing that i had other people in my life, that actually cared about me and what was going on with me.
i hope this never happens to you again, but if you ever notice anyone else who seems depressed, tell someone.

The best thing I can tell you is to start a huge project that means something to you. Maybe you could start a suicide awareness program or something of the sort in memory of your friend. If you are artistic, you could start an art project or write a poetry book. All of these take an enormous amount of effort to get started, especially if everyday tasks are a problem for you. But if you can get something started and keep it going, and really dedicate yourself to it you will really feel better. It's always good to have a purpose in life.
Also, keep a journal or a diary. Write whatever you want in it; get mad at people, grieve for you friend, write about things that make you happy, whatever you want! Just get your emotions out as much as you can. If you work with your counselor then you will already be getting them out, but counseling sessions usually aren't that long, so it would be good to keep a journal on the side for when your counselor/therapist just isn't available.
Always remember not to blame yourself for what your friend's suicide. He made his choice and nothing can change it now. What's done is done. All you can do now is try to keep strong.
