Grief Group Topic: Sometimes we feel panicky. Last night we read the chapter on feeling panic, usually at the beginning of grief, about our mental health and loss of control. I shared that my panic was lessened when I accepted that I was indeed in a grief process and quit trying to fight it so much.
I also shared about how earlier on I decided to rate my grief on a scale, so I could see that it goes up and down. Not every day was so overwhelming, so that reassured me. The chapter also talked about our loss of productivity at work. I shared my relief that I'm doing better on that score. And finally, the chapter talked about not wallowing in gloom. I shared that I am guilty of isolating, which is scaring me a little.
