    I would have healed sooner had I leaned on other people instead of shutting everyone out.

    Finding people who are going through the same thing can be such a gift!

    I think isolation is one of the easiest things to do or fall into when grieving a loss, especially the loss of a loved one. But having a support group and connecting with others keeps us grounded and going. Being surrounded by family and those who love you and can encourage us and love us is so important. Even if sometimes it’s sitting in silence, it means more than people realize. Just their presence and them being there helps more than people realize.

    Yes mentioned in my previous comment, reaching out to others is the most difficult for me, I do tend to now rely on God for comfort, but it can be difficult as I know He is there but often I’m not hearing his voice, its reassuring to hear someone say “ I understand, Ive been there” having someone empathise with you can be comforting.

    Concerning support to help in terms of grieve. I seek God at first then I see his love reflecting among others. That’s where I can spot his existence within that indeed the Lord is present
