I have had a strong faith in God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit all of my life and that has been my ROCK of support!!. My family never talked about death and grief so no support there. The first time I have felt any other form of support has been after my daughter died. I have a friend who lets me be who I am and where I am at any point in time. Most of my life I have been the strong one and supported everyone else. I was also a Hospice Nurse because I felt I had experienced loss enough to understand it and help others in their journey know that wherever they were and whatever they though at any given time was ok. I was also able to teach them about aspects of death and of grieving.
My daughter also had a strong community of support and they have been kind to me. My church has also been supportive with her death.
