Other Answers:
I think you need to talk to a professional.someone who is more able to help you than anyone over the computer can.

you need to get over it and move on in life. you have an entire future ahead of you and **** happens.

why dont u replace that bad memory with a positive experience and take a holiday every summer

I use to get that way every aug-sept because that's when my daughter was born and died. Over time it doesn't hurt as much but it will always be there. I try to do fun things during that time

im sorry to hear that. Why dont u do one thing like pant a flower in respects for him. ya know do something that will make u feel good for him

I am so sorry to hear about the murder. it's totally natural but if it has come to the point where every summer, you can't enjoy being out, it's time to get some help. A murder is an awful thing to go through, and the best thing to do is surround yourself with friends and family who are there for you, even if they are going through the same thing. Talk about it. Don't remember him being murdered, remember the good times everyone had. And if you are still depressed after a while, get help.

Maybe you should have nice long talk w/ur aunt
I dont see how this is healthy

And if none of the above advice helps, move to Greenland

just do something to get your mind off it.

Change your mind : play sports, hiking, travelling, dating, anything.

I think unconsciously you have that event in the back of you head.

You know, sometimes we get into routines. Things can trigger feelings for us because we felt the same feelings when the same things were going on around us. The sun and the people about you - all those summer routines.

I wonder - is it posssible to do something different this year? Can you get a summer job? Do something fun? See different poeple - go stay with another aunt maybe?

Good luck with it. Remember there are people around you who care - notleast those of us who have seen your post and are hoping to see a more joyful and forward looking one soon - just so's we know you are heading in a hopeful direction!!

whether you think so or not you are thinking about the crime- a severe shock like that can't help but make you think about it especailly when the anniversary date comes around- you need to talk with someone you can trust about this- it'll help if you talk to the right person, whether a minister, counsellor, or whomever.

You need to seek the help of a psycologist. Sometimes just talking about it helps. I lost my baby brother in a hit and run accident in the middle of the summer and it took a long time to be able to do the things I used to do at that time of the year.

Sounds like post traumatic stress.You will need help with it most likely.Seek counseling.If you cannot afford it,some churches offer counseling and grief support groups for free. Mental health department in your area may give you some help as well.

Yes, this is normal and it will get easier with time. Believe me. It doesn't matter when it happened, things like this will affect you for life. It is just how you deal with them that matters because you can not change the past. Ten years from now, it may not have as big an impact for instance, but it will always be in your memory. You may or may not be so upset then, since time has passed and you have had new experiences.

I always feel that certain times of the year are sadder than others for reasons such as deaths and so forth. This is completely normal. So tell someone about the way you are feeling and you will feel better about it. I am sure your family is feeling pretty down too, so talking will help. Also doing something to commemorate the person's life may help you feel better-such as going through pictures with your family, putting flowers on the grave or even having a conversation with them or writing them a note to tell them things you wish you would have said before they died or things that you just want to tell them or ask them now. This will help you get your emotions out. Remember this person would want you to go on with your life. No one knows how long they will live so be safe, make the most of your summer and have fun --don't feel guilty for living or afraid to live. You are here for a reason. Ask God to help you.

You need to get some counseling to help you work through your grief, and possibly the fears that cause your depression.
