Hi @hopeful33250 . That is very sad about your family member's loss. I feel for them. As mentioned in my reply to @colleenyoung , I have not been able to find a group or grief counselor although that is what I've been hoping to find. I have started journaling in the past but did not really keep it going. Think I'll give it another go. I'm not sure how I stumbled upon this group...was googling support for depression and found this forum and although there is a group for depression and anxiety, I felt like this group for grief is what I need. Thanks for sharing and for your words of encouragement.

@rcb1975 It is great that you continue to post and I'm glad that you "stumbled upon this group."
Yes, my family member died recently, but she carried the grief of her brothers' death with her throughout her life. I could only wish that she could have dealt with it as an adult, but she chose to "shut-down" instead. I hope that you are able to open up to the loss of your brother and have the courage to realize it's impact on you and all of your family members. Until you find a support group and/or counselor continue to post here on Connect.

To help you get started would you like to share a little about your brother? What are some of your fond memories of him?
