First things first, sending my condolences to you. I very much understand the stress and pain you're going through, and I'm sorry for your loss.

Second, your means of dealing with that is not silly at all. I think that sounds lovely, and I'm very glad that scenario and the character himself been proving so helpful and comforting for you. That's part of what makes fiction so great, that it can help us through tough times :).

So yeah. If that works for you, keep with it as long as you need/want to.

Thank you. All of the kind comments make me feel a bit less silly for doing this. - OP

I think it's great when something in fandom helps people cope. I hope it gets better for you here on out, OP!

I understand how you feel. My dad passed away in June. As long as you're not hurting yourself or other people, do what you need to get through it. One day at a time, anon.

Hugs, if they're welcome.

(Anonymous) 2016-08-29 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
I'm so sorry you're going through the same, losing my dad was the worst thing that's happened to me. And yes, one day at a time is the only way to do it right now.

And hugs are always welcome *hugs back* -OP

I'm sorry for your loss OP, and it doesn't sound that silly to me, you've found something to give you comfort and I can only view it as a good thing.

(Anonymous) 2016-08-28 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Using fandom to keep you going isn't a bad thing at all (as long as it doesn't take over your life, then it's an addiction like any other). I remember thinking about acting like a proper Starfleet officer during my mom's funeral. It helped. And I at least view a lot of my favorite fictional characters as some kind of friend. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one doing that.

I lost my dad about four weeks ago now, I completely feel you. I've been doing much the same but for me it's been Aramis from Bbc muskerteers. Considering I'm not religious myself I've been finding the idea of him using his faith to comfort me, comforting. I'm glad it's working for you.

(Anonymous) 2016-08-29 07:48 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry to hear about your dad, losing a parent is like losing a part of yourself, I don't think I'll ever feel like a complete person again...I'm glad you've found something like that to comfort you, too, sometimes it's the only thing that helps. - OP

(Anonymous) 2016-08-28 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Aww, this is a sweet fantasy. :)

(Anonymous) 2016-08-28 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I did the same thing when I lost my son, except it was David Tennant as the tenth doctor.
I'm so sorry for your losses, OP. I'm glad you've found something to give you comfort during your grief.

(Anonymous) 2016-08-28 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Aw, I'm so sorry, OP. I know how you feel, unfortunately.
There's nothing silly about the way you cope with your pain, it's good to have a safe comforting place to go to, even if it is only within your mind. It's a very sweet daydream too, and something I could imagine Bones doing :)

I'm glad you have fandom, OP

OP, when my parents were dying, each from long illnesses, fandom was my relief and my escape. I think it's important having that outlet and not silly in the slightest. I'm glad you found it to keep from exploding. Caregiving a loved one through to the end is the absolute worst.

Just remember there's no particular way you're "supposed" to feel about things, and there's no timeline for getting over this crap. I'm wishing you healing and lots of hugs from your favorite space doctor.

I'm sorry to hear about your parents, it must be awful to lose both of them...My mum and I were taking care of my dad (as much as he would let us, since he's never made peace with the fact that he's not a healthy strong person he was prior to the disease)and now we're helping each other get through this, somehow. Still, without fandom, I would have gone mad months ago.

Thank you for your kind words, it helps knowing I'm not alone in this. *hugs* - OP

(Anonymous) 2016-08-29 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
I'm so sorry for your loss, OP. And I'm adding my voice to all the others saying that there's absolutely nothing wrong with having Bones to help you through it. I'm glad you've found a source of comfort at such a tough time.

(Anonymous) 2016-08-29 12:47 pm (UTC)(link)
My condolences OP, that's awful =( I'm glad Bones is helping you get through it. (It's kind of adorable, not gonna lie.)

(Anonymous) 2016-08-29 01:30 pm (UTC)(link)
It's given me an absolutely ridiculous, heartbreaking crush on Bones as a sideeffect, tbh. But, screw it, it's totally worth it.
