Grief Therapy

Everyone says I need grief therapy because I want to die. I’m not talking about suicide.... I just want to die. I’ve heard of couples where one dies and shortly after the other one dies too.

That’s all I’m talking about.

I’m tired of sobbing every single day.

Of course a dude on here told me I should be ashamed of myself because others are more deserving of help.

I’m not asking.

Okay, I did look into therapy, but you know.... Covid19.

Tell him to go fuck himself!!! You are doing your best. 😡

The timing of Rod's death hasn't really helped you because you don't have access to many of the things that can help with grief.

Are there any telephone counselling services that you might be able to call to have someone to just listen through how you are feeling right now??? They may be able to get a therapist that you can talk to over the phone or something...

@HootyTheNightOwl I have a hard time saying that. If someone shames me I just feel ashamed and shut down further.
@realrare That's not your shame to bear, though... its they who should be ashamed of their own ignorance and stupidity!!!

Don't let them stop you from talking about how you feel and how you are coping. You need to find help and support from somewhere, even if it is just us listening to how you feel and how you are coping.

If they don't like it, then they can always block you as some did with me during my battle for normalcy after my release.

@HootyTheNightOwl here’s the screenshot of it... it in my post from yesterday.
@realrare Hmm... this is the same guy who has offered to help me, too...

Having read this, I'm glad that I rely on others for my help and support.

@HootyTheNightOwl I didn’t know he’d offered to help you, seems to be a harsh judge.
@realrare No, I'd had no reason to share this information prior to reading this.

You may want to make the Screenshots disappear as soon as people have seen them, though... you don't want to be flagged for sharing unedited messages naming other members 😉
