Stages of grieving

I've decided to just give in and accept my moods and feelings, if I'm having a crap day, I'm going to let myself have a crap day. So many people push their emotions down and that's just not me. I visited with a good friend on Wednesday and she let me cry on her shoulder and talk about things and I felt *so* much better after that. Yesterday was kind of a melancholy day, and today I'm looking forward to all of my plans this weekend :)

Sometimes these things just take time, but I feel (today at least) that everything is going to be just fine. And I'm so thankful that I can come here and get support and advice!

It's great to have girlfriends like that, isn't it! I'm glad that you seem to be on the upswing today : ) Also glad that you know you can come here for support whenever needed!

Enjoy your weekend!

Everything will be fine and it is good to go through the stages and the emotions because then you get over it quicker than if you stuff those feelings in so if you need to cry then by all means cry because then that means you are one step closer to getting over it and feel free to post and vent it helps definately. Enjoy your weekend!
I am grieving what I feel as the loss of a friendship now myself. Me and a good friend are taking a break from the friendship and I'm going through my anger phase right now. I'm just hoping that this break isn't a permanent one but with the way I'm feeling right now it sure feels that it might be but maybe I just need to get those pent up emotions over this out.

I know the feeling...but just remember this, whatever is meant to be will be. That's been my mantra lately :)
