Grief doesn't ever get lighter, we just get used to carrying the weight.

The darkness is like a heavy blanket, That surrounds my shattered soul That has stolen all my happiness , And has been replaced with an immense sadness , That only another grieving mother could know. I struggle with so many emotions That occupy my...

Interesting concept

The socialist leader of Alberta's opposition party is suggesting that Alberta women who have an abortion should get time off work for bereavement. That is the same opposition who a few days ago was all in a lather about Roe v Wade in the US. That...

I Know Pain, Grief And Suffering

I was blamed for my grandmother’s death. She had stage 4 lymphoma and to not scare the family she diminished her feelings and symptoms to present it that although it was there, it wasn’t bothering her much and she wasn’t dying. Fast forward years...

And I dont truly know why. There are issues I'm dealing with that is causing me depression, but the amount of grief I have and the randomness of it coming and going makes no sense to me. It's just lingering there, in the background.

I Know Pain, Grief And Suffering

I'm kind of grieving. But I oddly don't feel anything. I know that's normal because people have different ways of grieving and dealing with death but it's weird when you actually experience it and feel nothing. I cared about that person and still do,...

I Am Dealing With Grief

I Know Pain, Grief And Suffering

I am in so much pain right now - my heart feels like it's shattered. My family don't understand. I try to show them but I don't know how. I try to tell them and it becomes a competition of who's pain is worse. I am so tired of feeling on the edge of...

I Find That the Grief Journey Is Lonely

Here's something to make you less lonely.. ]

I so fear my death It is so strange and loathsome. With a creepy face And five spindly fingers too When it crawls I feel frightened

One afternoon I said to myself, "Why isn't the less loneliness more superficial?" Never forget the sound and superficial less loneliness. *** Pay attention to the german guilt, the german guilt is the most oedipal self-reproach of all. Does the...

I Am Dealing With Grief

Is is better to die quickly? Or do you feel it is better to know ahead of time so you can prepare? The shock seems to mask the grief for a brief second. My brother passed away unexpectedly last October. He had cancer and went into the hospital...

I Know Pain, Grief And Suffering

I don't share this openly often, nor should I, as I often want it away Now.... everytime is a new experience, I know my life is upside down in some way from his death (but that is also unequivocally my doing too) I don't have an easy time with...

I Am Dealing With Grief

Not myself personally, but a friend of mine is grieving and it makes my heart hurt. As a mother I cannot imagine losing a child, like my friend has. It hurts me to know that she is grieving the loss of her daughter who passed away the other day....

Heaven Sent... My sweetest angel, Do you have any idea how much I miss you? More than you ever know. You are my first thought in the morning and my last at night. Whoever said that time heals all wounds, lied. I hurt as much...
