I realized that I have been chasing a dream. A dream that will never become reality. It really saved my life though. But now I have come crashing down. I know now that this thing I want so badly, will never ever happen.

As you give up the dream, you may feel sadness/grief.
How are you feeling?

I am so sad, depressed, hopeless. Like I will never be happy again.

[Crypts_Of_The_Mind]

Do you want to talk about what it was/is exactly that happened?

[Wild Coyote]

You likely need time to grieve and to adjust.

Please be kind to yourself during this difficult time.

WC

[metalchick]

Yeah probably, but it hurts so much.

[Wild Coyote]

Is there someone you can talk to about this?
Talking can help, if you are ready.

You can also write here if you wish.


WC

[metalchick]

No, I can't really talk about it...but thanks for caring

[Wild Coyote]

I understand.
A loss is a loss and it hurts.
Please take good care of yourself.

I am feeling the same way. Reality hit me today like a pile of bricks and now I'm just greiving. I don't really know where to go from here.

[metalchick]

Yes exactly. I hope you feel better soon. I can't escape this sadness.

The realization that a dream is over can bring a huge sense of loss and grief. I've experienced these losses before. Treat yourself gently and take adequate time to mourn. Talk about it when you can. Thinking of you.
