Asking for help is Okay

[chloe40]

Remember, although it may make us feel vulnerable, there is nothing wrong with asking for help. In fact, even if you find that counselling is not necessary, support from family and friends is an essential component of dealing with grief. If you do feel that grief counselling would be beneficial, begin by talking to your primary health provider.

I’m not great at talking about feelings or the life changing events that have happened to me.

I have close friends that I know I can talk to & I’ve tried but I feel it makes me worse. I’ve moved away from the area where I used to live & now live in a village where no one knows my history. I’ve made many friends they see this happy go lucky positive person not the tragic history that came before & I’m ok with that. Of course I can’t always run from my thoughts & pain & at those times I hide away.

I am relieved that you have made so many friends Caza

it's important for you and not always easy, so that's a blessing.

I don’t feel I always feel better after talking about certain personal things either but then again sometimes it helps a lot. I have to search the combination of my heart and logical mind to get a good answer as of how and who to share with.

I wonder often how it would be to move away
