[QUOTE="Star*, post: 146824, member: 4964"] Steely, Call a local hospital in your area - see if you can attend a grief support group. I REALLY think you are a tactile learner. Meaning you have to see, touch, hear - to make sense of things. At this stage in your grief process you arent' able to do those things and little is making sense. However - if you will allow yourself the luxury of physically GOING to a grief support group - I think being among people who will ALLOW you to cry, and fall apart without judging you would be enormously beneficial to your soul. I think you need one really really good blow out cry among people who are going through the same things as you are. I can write you, I can tell you I'm sorry - but I have no idea what it's like to loose a sister the way you did. Then to have my father be in ill health, stress from a difficult child, my job not going well? I can imagine what it's like to walk in your shoes and have sympathy for you, but for your unique situation - that's all I can do. And at this point, as your friend - I do not think it is enough to HELP you. Am I making sense? Currently you have an injury - and you have (crutches) to support you. This board is your crutches. We're holding you up. But we can't heal you. That's something that is going to take time, and more IMMEDIATE and LOCAL, tangible support. You need to talk to people who have like problems and hear their solutions and their pain too. Many Hugs - Star [/QUOTE]
