Hi. Just sharing-- It's been about 2.5 years since my younger sister died unexpectedly after a long medical ordeal, during which she was the picture of courage and grace. She was only 25. I was, am still am, broken-hearted. For the first year to 2 after, I was consistently aware of my anger at the universe for what happened to her, for her being cheated out of her dreams of marriage, travel, etc. I notice those feelings still rear their ugly head sometimes. I know intellectually that things are what they are; my heart isn't so matter-of-fact about it. I've also experienced increased anxiety since she died--sometimes I'm up at night worry about anything and everything; other times I've had panic attacks out of know where. I function okay most of the time, but I do think I experience short periods of depression. I don't think grief ever really ends; perhaps it changes in frequency or intensity over time...but it never goes away. Again, just sharing... Hope all who read this are doing okay. ❤️

I'm not sure how this all works it's my second time here but I've never participated in a group. I need to do something I can no longer live with the pain I feel in my gut everyday. I go to bed at night and pray to God to please not let me wake up to another day. So far he has not answered my prayer.

How does this work? It has been just over 4 yrs and I don't think I have moved on very far.

What is Grief?

Grief is an emotion that is very common.  This emotion is often associated with a devastating loss, such as the death of a loved one. However, we might feel grief after the loss of nearly anything that we loved dearly, including our relationships, homes, jobs, or pets.

It is quite normal for us to feel emotion after losses such as these. Grief is a normal process that all of us will experience at some point in our lives.

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
