F!S Anon Meme (the Tenth?)

Secrets, rants, opinions, anything you want to say about your fandom or a fandom or fandom in general, do it here! Anonymously, of course. Get it all off your chest.

Some ground rules:
1. Going anon is encouraged but not absolutely required (for those who struggle with captchas and stuff).
2. No autoplaying/autolooping embeds, or embeds that cover/stretch the screen.
3. No dropping personal info or IRL contact info, etc.

That's about it!

Give yourself some decompression time. Take some time to just let yourself feel what your feeling somewhere quiet and comfortable. I usually go lock myself in the remotest bathroom in the house and then just let myself think whatever I feel like thinking, cry, rage, etc (have had to say goodbye to a few relatives; it's the worst part of getting old).

No matter how "prepared" you are for someone to pass, it will still hit you hard when it happens; also, when these things happens, everybody grieves in different ways - some people cry, some people flip into "deal with things mode" some people get all clingy with their loved ones, and some people isolate themselves, and some you'd never know to look at them that they're dealing with anything. However you react, trust me, everyone will be too busy reacting on their own to judge anything you do.

It might also help you to choose some task involved and just focus on that one thing. So, if panic starts to overwhelm you or there's just too many emotions to process, you can just think "right now, I just need to organize flowers" or whatever it is.

So sorry you're going through this; many virtual hugs if you want them.

Thanks. I sometimes just cry by myself in my room where I'm alone when I feel my emotions taking over.

Yeah...I imagine. I mean...I know it's not the same but in the past I have had bad reactions to moving and when my most recent move happened I tried to be prepared, but I ended up having horrible breakdowns and ragefits at my parents and stuff. I thought if I prepared for it I'd be ready but...*shrug*

*nod* Mine tends to be story planning. It takes me away from my issues and it relaxes my mind.

thank you , hugs are very accepted.
