If it’s been more than a year, and it’s disruptive to your daily life (trouble enjoying pleasant things, pervasive thoughts, crying spells, difficulty functioning at work, difficulty connecting with new partners, etc.), it’s probably worth seeking help.
Heck, if it’s been more than 3 months, you’ll probably benefit from help.
If you have friends you trust, asking them is probably best, since they’ll know how important that particular person was to you.
If you feel like it’s “all piling up”, that’s a sign that you’re dealing with more than you know how to cope with. That’s exactly when getting someone else to help can be most useful.
Now I just need to convince myself to take my own advice here :(
