I can assure you that you will never feel any pain that is that bad unless God forbid you loose another child. I want you to know that there are always someone that you can talk with. If you can not find anyone else you can always contact me. If you will email me I will give you phone number so that you can call. I do not know you and I am nobody. But I care about fellow human beings. I practice alternative medicine and I do not charge anyone for my assistance. I do what I do because people need help and I have knowledge that I can use to help. I am not a freak nor do I want anything from you except for your attention and to have an open mind. My email address is:<br />Doc4543@gmail.com<br />When you contact me put in the subject line "in need of alternative medicine please". I can assure you that I will do whatever I can to help.

I was about a year out (like yoursel...Hey Melissa~<br /><br />I was about a year out (like yourself) when I started having panic attacks--bad ones that freaked me outand that I started to have to take meds to control--I don't like taking meds but trying to deep breathe and calm down wasn't helping. You know...the anxiety and panic we feel really does seem to come from our normal life stress combined with insensitive people, stupid comments and people that seem to "KNOW" how WE should grieve better than we know. <br /><br />I am not saying this is ok...rather I COMPLETELY understand what you are going through...I'm just a bit farther along then you. I still am having problems myself. One of the things I did was I stopped going to my bereavement class (after about a year) because I didn't feel like it was geared towards my particular grief--it was a general bereavement group--and I felt I had run the course with the "curriculum" so to speak (the leader would explain about the stages of grief etc. but ALWAYS pointed out to others in the group that my grief was different and didn't follow any of the regular paths). <br /><br />I finally decided I needed to talk to someone else, one on one. I felt I was suffering PTSD because Jared had hung himself in my closet while I was in the SAME house in the other room and had no clue and also because I found him. I was in fact diagnosed with PTSD and he also diagnosed me with severe depression (I have suffered from moderate depression all my life but its reached another level).<br /><br />It is extremely hard to go through the counseling with him--I go every week. I was at a point where I had shut down, couldn't cry and was having pain in my chest and throat because it was stuck inside and I couldn't release it. Now, with the counselor I am sobbing nearly every week...and its hard...but...I think it is slowly starting to help. Its really, really hard to deal with this kind of pain...don't like to, don't want to but have to.<br /><br />Like you said above...you're not a doctor...nor am I a psychologist...but...it might be time to see someone just for you--not shared in a group--and see if that will help. Creating Zachsfriends was a awesome thing for you to do(something simliar to what I wanted to do for Jared but don't have the fortitude to do yet)but it gives you something to do...it doesn't completely relieve all the grief and pain and sadness you feel...and a lot of times people simply don't understand why you feel the way you do still (especially creating your organization..they think the grief is just dissapating by being involved with it).<br /><br />Please knowing I am sending love to you (and a big hug). PLEASE contact me anytime and if you want to exchange numbers we can do that as well.<br /><br /><3 JacquieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
