Grief

Grief is weird. It’s been 46 days since my mom passed and somedays I manage just fine. Then days like today where just breathing is just a chore. I know it’s because I’m overly tired due to everything that has happened the past couple of days in my area (tornado outbreaks and wildfires) and when I’m overly tired my borderline personality disorder acts up. Add grief on top of the emotional deregulation and abandonment issues and I’m my own type of wildfire. I’m working my way through all of this. It sucks. I’m trying to be gentle with myself. #mygriefjourney #borderlinepersonalitydisorder

Grief can be a complex emotional experience, often intensified by circumstances such as natural disasters or personal struggles. In times of loss, it’s crucial to allow yourself to feel and process emotions rather than suppress them. Many individuals facing grief also deal with mental health issues which can complicate their healing journey. Engaging with support groups, practicing mindfulness, or seeking therapy can provide valuable outlets and tools for managing grief. Additionally, sharing your story can build connections with others who are experiencing similar challenges, fostering a sense of community and understanding. Remember, it's okay to seek help and take the necessary time to heal. Your journey is uniquely yours, and taking small, gentle steps can lead to gradual improvement.

The Grief of Letting Go

I almost had a relapse into my old life. Nostalgia almost made me backtrack but something inside me said no it’s a trick. It’s OK to reminisce on old feelings, but it’s not OK to run back to comfort.
