newbie
Hi all, I'm a newbie to this group
I lost my dad in january this year, then my great Aunt and then my stepdad all in the space of a few weeks.
I'm still working my way through all sorts of emotions.
Anxiety, stress, lonliness, depression, anger - wow I've never expressed my anger until now, I've started punching my bed and beating up cardboard boxes.
Lots of past issues are rearing their heads - I've realised my relationship with my mother is no where near what I was telling myself it was, and I've realised how dysfunctional my behaviour in relationships is.
All this while I'm in New Zealand - supposedly on the trip of a lifetime

Welcome to the group and know that anger is a common feeling to have when going through the grief process, especially if there are unresolved issues in your past...the good news is that you are admitting what you are feeling, getting connected to others, and aware of how the past is affecting you as you grieve. You have gone through a lot of loss and pain within this last year and I encourage you to continue stepping out and getting support from others. I wish you the best through this difficult process!

"is griefshare a website like this?"
"Kali
I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal.
Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"
It was not supposed to be like this
In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
