Hi

[Elizabeth]

Hi there

I joined here because last year a number of things happened. Firstly I lost my job after 4 years, was made redundant. Then got depressed as couldnt find work, got a months work eventually. Went on a holiday to NZ which took my mind off being unemployed. Started another job but that only lasted 3 months
as I was not good enough and my customer service skills were apparently not up to speed. I was let go on the day I found out my grandma was dying. She had been in a home for 7 years with Alzheimers, I had not visited her as wanted to remember her as she used to be. It was hard thugh as grew close to her stayed over at weekends, etc.. Then on December 3rd she passed away. I cried nealy all the next day, even though had cried and grieved over her while she was in the home. I also cried at the funeral but would not see her in the coffin.

In conclusion..I do not think I am grieving now but I am occ lonely/depressed.

Hi to Orange, lady itl and Gene, so nice to be here with all you friendly people

ITL: I am better now I grieved for her while she was in the home, because it was then I lost the grandma I knew and loved. When she died it was final but did not affect me as much, although I did cry at the funeral.

I cant come here anymore cos i get images and thoughts when i do like i did the suicide forum but i want to thank you for welcoming me

You can always just stay away from certain Psychlinks forums. There used to be an add-on that would allow members to ignore certain threads or forums... perhaps I should look for that again. That way you can use the parts of this forum that are helpful and stay out of parts that are triggering.

 

[Elizabeth]

maybe you could, thanks david

I'm still unpacking, etc., but I'll try to locate the add-on for that feature. Feel free to remind me.
