Grief is a Gift

[apestyle]

Grief is like alcohol, it will affect people physiologically in similar ways, but how it’s expressed varies from person to person and their psychological profile.

I recognize that I’m in mourning for my mother who is currently being kept alive by machines. It’s to me to fly over there and release her. And I’m working on that.

But I wanted to make

I went through the same kind of thing. I couldn't stop until things were taken care of and even then...it scared the crap of me because I was afraid that when I DID stop and let it consume me --- it would consume me.

Grief really controls us in the way it wants to. We just have to allow it to. When we give in , we are healthy.

I hope you are healthy. You are in my heart, my friend.

Yup. :(

I was likening it earlier to having a low-grade flu. It's tiring.

My condolences on your mother, and best wishes for getting through this with a modicum of ease.

You have an incredible self awareness. I'm so sorry you have to go through all this.

My dear friend... do what you must and may you have the chance to process in the way you most need at the time you are able. Love.
