What creative ways do you cope with grief?

I am new to Mayo Connect. In the last year and a half I have lost two of sisters (ALS/sepsisleukemia) and my dog to an unexpected death. Having a conjunctival melanoma cancer recurrence. I write. I’ve started reaching out to friends of the past also spoke with a funeral home about support groups that I can attend in person.

I have a great backbone, however, it’s time for even me to recognize that this is a lot of grief to try to backbone up and manage on my own.

Hugs to all!!!

Please keep in touch with us. That is a great deal to be going through. I hope you find a support group--tell us if it helps! My own experience--I was in a grief support group for about a year after I was widowed and it helped a lot, just being around people when I didn't have to act"OK."
