Here's a book that I recently (yesterday in fact):

Healing Grief, Finding Peace by Dr. Louis E. Lagrand

Gives you lots of ways to help cope w/grief. Chief among them is changing your negative, hurtful thoughts to positive coping mechanisms.

Hi, for anyone struggling with disenfranchised grief "disenfranchised grief, recognising hidden sorrow" really helped me. It is probably more written for other proffesionals but is as far as I am aware the only book on disenfranchised grief.

It really helped me to know there were others who understood. It covers grief such as that from having an abortion or miscarraige or the loss of an ex partner or gay partner and the loss of a loved one to suicide or aids amoungst other situations.

Thanks, I'll add these soon.  Lou LaGrand is actually a member of this site, although he hasn't been on here in a while.  Good choices.  Thanks again.

Traumatic loss of an only child

I started this group so that people who have lost their only child or the only child that remained, as in my case, could come together because I believe people that did have a child or children who now have none have special issues.

Loss of a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide

If you have lost a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide please share your story or feelings here. Share the love and beauty of the one you lost. Losing someone any of these ways is not natural and can be hard to understand and ask why? I lost my Mother to an overdose 9 years ago. She also suffered from major depression. Her doctor got her hooked on pain medication and she was addicted most of my life. These doctors who were suppose to help her ended up killing her in the end. I also…See More
