stuck
I haven't journaled in a while now. Mostly because i have reached a point in my grief where I am stuck. I was right in the middle of my grief-work resolving my angle's stillbirth when Wham...death struck again when Daddy died. I feel overwhelmed, dont know if I should start two grief journals now? one for Sinza and one for Daddy? should i restart grief therapy with a counselor? i had just stopped seeing the stillbirth counselor, should I now try to find a counselor dealing in parent loss, or multiple losses? Should I try to deal with the losses concurrently, or should i put the new one on ice, deal with Sinza and when done with that, start afresh with Daddy's loss? then what if mid way through this crisis someone else dies? I am at a loss for what to do with all this grief. And so for now my answer is to put everything on hold..till I come up with a more useful plan. Sorry this journal article is jumbled..my head is jumbled.

I\'m so sorry for both of your horrible losses. I think you should definitely see a counselor that specializes in grief, and ask them all of the questions you have asked in your journal. A grief counselor will help you along the grief path. I am in the midst of trying to find the right counselor for me, it is difficult because I live in a very small rural community. I wish you peace and strength Celian!

Hang in there Celian. Find a counselor/ therapist and talk about it all. Just keep talking until it gets better. I was in group counseling and one on one therapy at the same time and every time my mom would listen I\'d talk to her too. One on one counseling ended but I still see a therapist and probably will for a long time. Just find someone to talk to. And I\'m here if you ever need to vent. Praying for you.
Thank you both for your kind words, I think I will re-start therapy with the counselor I had been seeing helping me to deal with Sinza\'s death.
