Although I got through the anniversary, I feel an emotional hangover. It's like my heart was taken out of me, put in a washing machine, and put back in my chest. I think I am sadder now than that day and am questioning everything and everyone. Support is near, but not always from the ones you expect it and that can be painful. Please join me on my journey through grief, and together, I think we can really help each other.

Hi. I survived that day. It was filled with sadness, memories, and uneasiness. I surrounded myself with my daughter and she even wanted to go to the cemetery for the first time! Still feeling it today but what’s the alternative really? Join me I need 10 members to start making it happen.

Tomorrow is the day I have been dreading since we celebrated your birthday on Oct 12th this year. You would have been 13. Tomorrow is the day you left us 4 years ago. The calls and texts are starting to come in. They say, "You can get through this, How are you doing? This must be so hard! What can I do to help? Do you need me to go to the cemetery with you?" Although I am taking these comments with gratitude and grace, I am not really sure what to do with them, and if I will ever even take anyone up on their desires to reach out and help. I am lost. I am sad and lonely, and although I will probably get through tomorrow without imploding, I will never understand why this happened and will fight it the rest of my life. Any tips on making this day meaningful and not just an angry and sad memory?

Ok people. We can get to work with this. We're not going to die. All our grief is different, and we all can begin to engage in activities that may help us understand we are not alone. By sharing your feelings, we will begin to see patterns. For instance, I am angry and Depressed. How do you feel? no

Today is one day closer to that dreaded day of Feb. 3rd. Although it’s been 4 years it feels like time stood still that day and feels like yesterday. How do you deal with anniversaries, holidays, etc.?
