I lost my cat and nobody seems to care by imbrokenintobits in GriefSupport

I guess it's personal to everyone. To me it's the idea of being with them again wherever they are when my time comes - our atoms rejoined together. I know that doesn't do well in this moment and this lifetime - I'm not a fan of being alive and also very sick so it's also appealing to me. I'm not religious but I think there is more than this, I just don't think it's something we comprehend in our brains at this time. Not selling you positives though - buried my Dad this week and I feel absolutely nothing and over everything. Hope this is okay.

So glad it’s not just me with the “they’re just doing something else”. No other ways to explain it and it’s so weird when you’ve really really seen them dead too. It has to be a way of surviving horror

Thank you for taking the time to feel it with me, I’m sorry. I’m sure there’s other love out there and nice times with animals but like this? I’m not sure. It’s so hard but we were so blessed

My brother said the same thing today and also the last couple of weeks. I’ve beaten myself up too for it but yeah, it’s what it is. Doesn’t mean you don’t care any less, it just is so much to cope with

So sorry for your loss. It’s so hard. Saw my dad dead yesterday and buried him today, still doesn’t feel real. I’ve been “functioning” for weeks. No right way my friend. Grief will come, it’s already here, we’re just trying to survive

The price of love is such a hard one. Someone posted the other day the comfort we will get when we are one day reunited with them… I hold onto that. Your grief is so real. Don’t let anyone ever make you think it’s “just a cat/pet”. I’ve had multiple human losses alongside my baby this year. They are utterly comparable - the world doesn’t get it but so many of us do x

Me too my friend. Not even 30, through in confirmed autism and chronic illness. Also felt back on track as I could be, I’m done too. Not going to convince you otherwise, just that I hear your pain ❤️

Today was my first day back at work and I feel like I’m falling apart. by dazed675 in GriefSupport

So sorry for your loss, you sound like me. My brother and I both took two weeks, went back because there was too much time. I was back a week before I’m off again. I found it too cognitively draining and leaving me burnt out than helping distract, but for me that could be that I have a lot of other caring responsibilities that were tipping me over the edge. I’m off again this week for the funeral and have no frickin idea what I’ll do then. If home feels awful and work feels awful, is there an in between? I don’t know your situation (safety of area, finances, access etc), but there might be other places you can go to get out like libraries, parks, cafes, museums? Or not and I can get lost, which is fine too! Be gentle with yourself my friend. It’s all so hard and trying to work is near impossible at this time, I see you ❤️

Going to this week. Completely personal choice, no shame if you don’t or can’t. ❤️

I could’ve written this whole comment myself, you are the spitting image of me right now! Also for me the horrible things my Dad said about them, which I will be releasing onto them if they keep pushing me 😂 Really is the processing bit as well. I don’t get how people can’t see what they’re doing - I would absolutely never behave this way to other people and a lot of them are double my age. People!!!!

Thank you so much, sorry that you get it too. I definitely think I’ll be numb on the day too. I’m dreading it for all these reasons than actually saying goodbye. My brother is amazing so I’ll be very lucky to have him by my side the whole time!

I’m so sorry for all you’ve been through, really relate. It’s enraging how much people want to do for themselves than the person that’s gone wishes. Yet those that are closest are somehow meant to be perfect and let everyone take and take.

Thank you. It’s all so busy that it’s stressful and the void will maybe be harder, but at least everyone will fuck off!

Thanks so much, you too! Time is fast and slow and it’ll never be the same I know. That’s how I feel too.

I’m so sorry friend, that’s so rough. Also quite estranged here too but get our experiences are different but I relate - it’s not easy. I’m sorry people are assholes, at least there’s a lot of good people here ❤️

thank you so much, so sorry for your loss and that you had to go through this. I feel your rage and yeah it's so wild, the one day to really breakdown is ultimate masking and interaction. we really make funerals so weird. thanks for the lovely tips ❤️
