Online Grief Support - A Social Community
Don't grieve alone; 14,000 members and growing
A social Community?
I recently got on this site on the 12th or 13th of Feb. and get on here every chance I get because I'm an emothional wreck, having issues coping and What I have noticed is no one talks to eachother. I have replied to a few posts I have read and I went to the chat didn't get an answer and there was three others on line besides me, and did a blog, things like that.. I notice that this is more of a self help group, because I have found no support or any one being social.. Everyone here has had a hard loss, and where's the support? Is it writing about it that helps? I read these posts, and people are looking for help, consoling, and maybe a few answers, jst like me... It took me over 2 weeks to get approved for this site I was hoping for something that would assist me in my loss........ No welcome to the site, No sorry about your loss, no nada.. I'm sure those of us who have lost are not here looking for sympathy, but maybe an ear or a shoulder outside of our normal support from family...... So plz some one enlighten me, where do we go from here, what do we do to get a little support and or socializum?

I was thinking the same think when I just got online. Of course I am the only one online right now. I recently lost my husband and would rather talk to people that are going through the same thing then the people around me that have NO IDEA what is like. Well, I would like to talk to you if you would like to talk to me. There are no support groups in my area at all sooo...this is all i have.

Hi Tara
Thank you so much, this is a hard way to lose someone because in the long run you feel responsible, even tho he was a grown man.. Whats hard is I work in the medical field and didn't see the signs of diabetes until it was too late, and like ur moms boyfriend, my husband shut dwn, there;s alot of losses here, and When you can feel you may have beenable to prevent death of a loved one its even worse..... I will check out that site, thank you so much, because I find myself shutting dwn, don't go no whaere, only work, and stay in my room.. I'm so sorry for your moms loss, I can honestly say I know how she feels.. I'm not too sure if this site or some of the poeple here understand a loss like this. But i want to thank you again for your kind words and your info, I hope our mom gets better soon cause you always wonder wat if i tried harder, thats all I can think of, or why did he not listen.. ugh wat a mess.... Thanks lady...... charlene

Being the Other Woman/Other Man
This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee More

LESBIAN ..GAY 2 SPIRITED loss and grief
Anyone who has lost their gay partner..soon finds that there may be a few things that are different...such as sorting through things and feeling like an intruder because it is also family stuff etcSee More
Assumptions
An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true. Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions. This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
