My psychiatrist read the thread. She thanked me for sharing and stated that it would be best to discuss it directly.

You have a very pure intent and I feel that you will get where you need to go to move on with a healed heart one day.
I understand the concept of episodic grieving. These types of experiences come up for us in cycles. That is natural. They are reborn, grow to some sort of peak emotionally and then hopefully die down for a time to allow us to process things with greater insight on a deeper level each time.
I can see where your pdoc is coming from. In a group setting there is a risk you will be led astray. I think one has to follow their heart and instinct and know that sometimes an idea may not be a fit, but sharing a moment with people who underdstand is invaluable.
Consider perhaps joining in on some of the check in threads where we keep things mostly social. It is a way to remain connected without discussing any one particular issue. I wish you all the best for healing and a bright future.
