You can do it. Just take breaks when you need to. Sometimes I run into the bathroom for little cries. I went back the week before i was scheduled to go back and brought everyone lunch, just to get most of the big cries and hugs over.  That's the worst part, when people come up to you and say they are sorry. Then they tell you they know how they feel, because their grandma or dog died last year.!  Idiots!

I am supposed to start back on Monday sharon. Not sure how ready i am but i dont have much choice, i can't afford to stay off any longer. I know it will be hard but like you, i will be as "normal" as possible but yes, inside a mess, probably always will be. One step at a time

I think the day they came and the day they left are the hardest days to get through.  Connie, my heart is with you!!!!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANIEL!!!!!

Rj,

I feel the same as you... I have some good moments, followed by really bad moments.  Grief is like ocean waves and you are right. It's really hard to keep getting back up. I'm working part time. It makes me get up and get out of the house.  I can sometimes make it through work without tears, but I usually cry all the way home.  I try hard at work to act normal and people tell me how well I am doing. I have them fooled, they don't now what a mess I am inside.

Much love Connie. How wonderful to share Daniel's birthday with his friends.

Sharon, i did find it helpful. I am glad i went. Today was okay but this evening sure has been hard. When those big waves hit, hard to get back up! Maybe its just night time, too much time to think once the days come to an end. How are you holding up?
Comment by Sharon on March 30, 2015 at 8:13pm

Rj,

How was the meeting?  Did you find it helpful?  It's so hard. We are so early in our grief, that nothing really helps.  We just exist from day to day like robots.  We have no choice but to continue on... hopefully it will get easier in time.

Connie, what a beautiful way to spend your beloved Daniels birthday.

I'm sure it was a really hard day for you.  Hope that being wrapped in that special blanket made it easier for you.

Hugs,

Sharon

Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?

Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More
