Beanie Feldstein<\/strong> is opening up for the first time about the death of her brother<\/a>, Jordan Feldstein<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“Grief is impossible,” the 25-year-old actress writes in an emotional essay titled Grief Glasses <\/em>for InStyle<\/a><\/em>, which she <\/em>posted to her Instagram<\/a> and was shared by People<\/a><\/em>. “It cannot be contained or summarized or enclosed… To describe the wound grief leaves if you have not experienced it is to come to it hazy and out of focus.”<\/p>\n

Pop culture fans might recall that Beanie and Jonah Hill<\/a><\/strong>‘s brother passed away from a pulmonary embolism in December 2017. He was only 40-years-old, and was most known as a talent manager in the industry\u2014he managed Maroon 5<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“About a year ago, Jordan Feldstein passed away very suddenly and unexpectedly,” the Lady Bird<\/em> actress pens. “He was a remarkably generous, intelligent, loving person. He was an incredible father, beloved by his boys… He was a deeply devoted son.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

She continues, “He was a brilliant creative mind. And he was my biggest brother. He gave me so many things, including my name.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Of her grieving process, she explains she’s “learned an immeasurable amount about the bandwidth of my own heart.”<\/p>\n

“The pain is so unbearable at times, so unremitting. Yet, in addition to the deluge of feelings leaking out of me at all times, I have found the process of grief (because it is and will always be a process, never finished, never concluded) to be just as resonant in my mind as it is in my heart.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

For the 25-year-old actress, she compares grief to wearing a pair of glasses, ones that “make me see the world differently than I did before.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“The colors bleed together more vividly,” she describes. “But they are somehow more<\/em> than they ever were before. More visceral. More vibrant. More present. Simultaneously more awe-inspiring and more aching.” <\/p>\n

She adds, “Sometimes I can push the glasses to the end of my nose, so I can peer over them to see the world the way I used to see. But I can only see over or around to my old perspective. I can never see it totally as it was ever again.”<\/p>\n

Feldstein wants others in her same situation to know “you are not alone.” <\/p>\n

“And while I wish I could rip my grief glasses off my face and have it all be a dream, I try to recognize what the glasses have given me: that unique blend of humanity that is simultaneously the darkest dark and the brightest bright.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Many of her followers have all shared their love and support, including a few celebrities.<\/p>\n

“Beautiful, profound, and deeply generous. You are incredible,” Olivia Wilde<\/a><\/strong> commented on the Lady Bird<\/em> star’s post. Ben Platt<\/strong> simply wrote, “You’re a gift.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
