How to heal a gulty burden

Its been awhile cents Iv posted somthing on here.Nothing to much has happened out of the normal, but I do have one reacuring problem.Now, I dont know if this is the right place to post this or not, but it does have somthing to do with death.

Well a while ago I had my first pet Betta fish. I never had one, but had friends who had one. I learned they are a very social and smart fish. So I went to get one. Well alot of them looked healthy and what not but one cought my eye. He was blue/black with some white on his torn fins. He acted healthy despite his fins. That was what cought my eye, ironicly. Was his fins. They were unique looked like a dragon almost or a serpant. So I bought him and his stuff.We bonded pritty quickly espeshly when I bought him his leaf bed. I placed it in his bowl and he would sleep on it. But alot of the time, he would sleep on the side that was the nearest to my bed, so I moved it to that spot. I couldnt even move an inch with out him jumping from his bed and acting like a over hyper puppy. But one day I desided to clean out his bowl.I bought some new drops becouse for a resion, unknown, the tablets I normly used was no longer avaluble. So I fallowed the directions and put Oscer in his bowl. All was ok for a little bit, but then he started to act funny. Thinking he wasnt used to the drops I let him be. He started to get wores so we called Petsmart. The lady said you can put more in so I did. He swame a bit but I saw he was strugling to breath. I slowly watched him die for about 4 hours not knowing what to do. He finly died and I cryed so very hard. He was my responsabilty. My love. Even though he was a fish, it felt more then a fish. It felt like a intellagent soul in a fish. Even to this day I still cry. Even though I had dreams with him in it and heard some splash sounds from his now empty bowl. And I think I saw him try to manifest.

So my quetion is, even mounths after he died, could your pet still be around?And how can I get over this sadness that keeps coming back? This guilt that I feel. I just love him so much..and I mean if he likes staying thats fine, I srtanly have no problem having him live here but I would like to get rid of these guilt and sadness. Its sorta wired becouse when I look at his bowl I feel happy but when I read a story that has the word Betta in it or start to talk about him like this, I feel...depress. So what can I do?

I've had cats that have passed on visit me in my dreams for awhile so your fish might be visiting you. He's probably trying to let you know he's fine though he's not with you in a physical way anymore.

Since your reaction is quite strong I think you are probably clearing out some old grief about other things in other lives and this was a trigger for that to happen. I experienced this myself a year ago when one of my cats died. The grief I felt was beyond what I felt when other of my cat friends died so I knew something else was going on. It took awhile. So know that in your grief you are also healing and this was the gift of your friend that passed.
