As for the writing class, it deals with grief and loss, which is difficult. The prompts aren't your plain vanilla writing class stuff, so take more time and the person doing this uses a lot of poetry, which while I enjoy reading it, isn't my best form for working, so challenges at several levels...I hope you are feeling better today? Hugs.
Ahhh, that does sound intense. Seems like grief has been coming up a lot for me lately... in hospital and outpatient, and yet I can't quite "get it." It's like I have a barrier up that prevents me from checking in wholly with the grief that others see or sense so clearly from me or as part of my strife at this particular moment. I'm not sure if that makes total sense, I'm really tired right now :) As far as feel better... yeah and no. Today at outpatient was pretty rough. Lots of tears.
You have so many things going on at once that it does not surprise me that you would say that...Grief will come up on a variety of levels...In my experience, it never completely departs, you just get better at managing it with time once you admit what is there...I am truly sorry for your tears, Hannah, but do not be afraid of them or your feelings. I hope today will be better for you.
Baby Banana Face is so so cute!
