ADHDdublinHi guys, if you are suffering with this I hope you can access good support.
These posts are a massive simplification of course, there is no summarizing this in 4 slides, it's just intended to point out a possible path.
There are free support groups online too, so much more accessible these days. David Kessler has got lots of resources @iamdavidkessler both paid and free for bereaved people.
I just want to say that continuing bonds is a secular idea, it can be spiritual or aspiritual, you can, for example, believe in the soul of a person staying with you, or you can hold onto the impression they have made in your heart and the impact they have had on you and hold that with you; you can find the way of keeping them with you that is true and real for you.
In Ireland:
you can free call the Samaritans at any time on 116 123 at any time if you need someone to listen. You can also email them if you prefer, jo@samaritans.ie
Irish Hospice foundation have a helpline for bereavement support which runs from 10am to 1pm on weekdays, it's 1800 80 70 77
Academic stuff:
