It feels like I am playing some kind of war game with my grief, measure vs counter-measure.  What seemed to help and get me out of the loops in my head yesterday are ineffective today.   So today has not been good.

I dreamt of my wife last night, seemed very real, we were sitting and I told her, "I'm sorry" and she said, "It's Ok", and reached to me and I woke.  I think I was apologizing for not be able to save her.

Perhaps I should write more, hence that's why I am here now.  

I got a friend request, thanks Poppy, made me feel better.

I had a major meltdown this afternoon after getting home. 

I saw the therapist today, I think I have exhausted her strategies. 

I need new a new plan for tomorrow, I fear the morning.  

I really need a good day.

Mark,

That is a particularly good metaphor "a war game with my grief" and its jousting with my emotions.  RIght now I am digging as hard and fast as I can before the big one goes off.  I just don't know how/when I am going to find the strategy to best my grief.  Damn this hurts.

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
