I lost my very good friend... months ago... and.. held feeling the grief in... and.. with my son's friends.. at such a young age 24... childhood friends.. I couldn't go to the funerals... I couldn't....I keep saying.. I couldn't.. I couldn't...
There has been so much death... in the past 4 years for me.... I feel surrounded by death...and I just couldn't go to one more funeral....

And tonight.. it hit me so hard... I can't stop crying.. the grief.. the pain... my heart it hurts so so so bad....

I feel.. like my heart is going to explode...

and I am DID... so when.. I get very upset... my alters get very active... and it makes an excurciating headache.. it is a special kind.. like a band around your forehead... that tightens and tigthens.. unbearable...

when the alters calm down.. the pain goes away... not like a real headache....

I took Darvcet... because I need.. to not "feel"....

can't figure out why I am posting....

does anyone out there understand????? grief....

I do understand grief. I have lost many many people that were close to me. I think I look at death alot differently than I use to. I know those that have gone will no longer have to suffer. easier said than done though. hang in there hon. it is normal to grieve and it is ok to do it.

Dear freewill:
While I personally don't have alters, I once had a very very dear friend who did, so I can understand to some small degree. As for grief, I totally relate. It hits at the strangest moments sometimes, and you just have to let it come out. I lost my husband in March of this year. I took my dear Mom's advice to "keep busy", and wound up terribly depressed, scary depressed! I'm better now, but still very sad and lonely. Some days I don't even get out of bed really and I rarely leave the hous if its not to work. I hope you feel better soon!

I dont think any of us ever understand it completely...but we do feel it.
