I'm sorry about the loss of your precious Alex. When my black cat, Osiris died, it felt like losing a house-mate or a sibling. He is laid to rest right outside near the hollow of an oak tree. Ritual can be so healing. I'm glad you two were able to make sacred space for yourselves.
I don't think my last comment got posted.... I just wanted to say I am very sorry for your loss and that my thoughts are with you... Its such a hard and emptying experience. I am glad you have such a great support.
This is in response to your post on the INFJ group. I'm not friended and therefore can't post there, so I'm just sharing this with you here instead

Glad to help. One big thing I do want to stress, from my example about NT's and videogames (and likewise RPG's and board games, sure), is the assumption that fun is an intransitory concept. I was actually really very interested in videogames (playing, design, and programming) starting in about 1989, up through 2001. For probably most of in 2001, and for a little while in 2002, I was basically still buying and playing videogames a lot, even though (as I understand in retrospect now), I simply wasn't really emotionally interested in them any more. Hence, it took a while to comprehend that a serious interest that was generally very compelling for me for so long was suddenly not up to par any more. I'm like that with TV shows too-- I tend to start watching them and then keep watching them, even if they dramatically decline in relevance. And, interestingly enough, that also seems to apply to me with religion... which has technically become far less relevant over time as I've become more spiritual and more on top of the spiritual

Alex was very much part of the family, and he is sorely missed.
