Bereavement Support Group
Are you grieving the loss of a loved one? Whether you lost someone recently or it's been years, grief and its accompanying emotions can be complicated to cope with. Join our online support group to connect with a supportive group of people who really know how you feel. Help is right here.
I WOULD SUGGEST TO EVERYONE... IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY DONE SO... TO JOIN A GRIEF SUPPORT GROUP. THEY ARE WONDERFUL. THERE ARE PEOPLE THERE WHO ARE GOING THRU THE SAME THING YOU ARE AND YOU WOULD BE SURPRISED AT HOW RECENTLY A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE LOST LOVED ONES. I JOINED A SUPPORT GROUP IN THE STATE I LIVE IN AND I AM ENJOYING BEING AROUND THE PEOPLE WHO ARE THERE. I LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERY TIME I GO THERE. YOU LEARN A LOT ABOUT THE PEOPLE THERE TOO... AND MAY EVEN MAKE SOME FRIENDS IN THE PROCESS.
IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO START LOOKING FOR SUPPORT GROUPS... I WOULD RECOMMEND CONTACTING YOUR LOCAL HOSPITAL AND STARTING THERE. I TALKED TO A DOCTOR AT THE CLINIC I GO TO AND HE REFERRED ME TO A SUPPORT GROUP HERE... SINCE I REALLY KNEW NOTHING ABOUT BEREAVEMENT SUPPORT GROUPS AT ALL. HE TOLD ME WHERE TO GO AND WHO TO CALL AND TALK TO. I REALLY THINK THAT IT'S HELPING ME... BUT I'M NOT SURE I AM GETTING WHAT I AM SUPPOSED TO GET OUT OF THIS GROUP. I THINK THAT, IN TIME, I WILL LEARN WHAT I AM SUPPOSED TO BE GETTING OUT OF IT THO.
ANYWAY... HOPE THIS ADVICE WORKS FOR SOMEONE. TAKE CARE !
ALWAYS,
KAREN

I think it's a good idea, but found I like this DS site better than meeting a bunch of strangers in person.

I tried support group one time and did not like it @ all. I find DS to be more helpful to me.

I agree with the last two responses. I like the DS site.It brings together a lot more people in the same boat, there for more insight.

I belong to a national support group, THE COPASSIONATE FRIENDS; IT HAS HELPED ME A LOT. Maybe there is one in your area.

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
