Strong?
People keep saying how strong I am, how impressed they are, and how if they were me, they'd be heartbroken. Are you saying that I have moved on and I should be worse than I am? People do not realize how tight my chest feels because of my broken heart. I'm dying inside. I am sad and crying everyday. Yes I'm getting by but it hasn't gotten easier. My son died but I have to continue my dreary, sad life. But I'm not some strong person who has moved on.

I don't think anyone thinks that,and I know it isn't like that...You are grieving and you are doing it in your own way..You are the only one who really understands how you feel.Sometimes it is hard for people around you to react to certain feelings that they don't know.And some people are grieving with you....It is a long road,and one of the most difficult ones I can ever imagine...But believe me,your friends and family are there for you,xxx chr
ReplyDeleteI remember thinking my friend was strong when she lost her baby basically because she could get out of bed, go out, talk, and work. I thought that was being strong, because I believed that I would be lying in bed depressed the whole time. Because I just didn't realise she had no choice, and it didn't mean she wasn't a wreck inside. I think people also take heart in seeing you out and about, and think "Phew," because they WANT YOU TO BE OK, even though right now you can't be, and they sort of see what they want, if that makes any sense. xo Ania
