RE: Waking the Lions and Understanding their Grief

Thanks for sharing your experience @ryivhnn

I am sure that the journey is a bit different for everyone. You sound like you are almost through it, but please reach out if you need. The Aussies on Discord have been great support to me any many others.

Sometimes just helping one more person is enough.

This really is the essence of it. We can all feel powerless and helpless at times but the act of helping another is therapeutic in itself.

Sort:  

I have bounced through Acceptance a lot so there is backsliding involved and I guess it would be the same for other people (even if they path through things normally unlike yours truly).

like I'm in that stage right now but can feel that it won't take much to shoot me back into Anger (where I'm closer to atm) or Depression (which is never far away to begin with)

If self-possessed enough, I think people who feel helpless and powerless should get angry about it, but control the anger into clarity so you can use the energy to do things with. Even if it is just say "orly" to someone because it might make them think a bit XD
