I'm also going through a period of grief which is causing me to become even more sensitive to rejection. I just lost my 90 year old father and step mom in August. They were both in hospice and I was their primary caregiver.

@mf1438 I am sorry for your loss. That must be very challenging to lose both of them. How are you coping with this major life change from being the caregiver to being the grieving person?

I found Griefshare very helpful when dealing with losing my bio-dad and my non-bio dad months apart. It does have some Christian basis but they say people who aren't Christians like the program too. Here the groups meet through churches or hospices.
