Guilt in Grief and Loss

Are you or someone you support in grief and loss struggling with guilt, blame or all the “what ifs and if only“ questions?
Today I share that it’s a normal part of grieving and how to express, then release your emotions. Talking to a trusted person who isn’t judging or trying to fix you is a lifeline ❤️🙏
Sharing the journey together.

    Thank you so much for this very helpful video on grief in guilt - it was really spot on and eased my guilt so much. My husband of 40 years died on Feb. 3 due to an unexpected terminal illness that I could not have prevented but it is still hard. 😢

    Thank you Sarah - it has been very tough and my grief is overwhelming at times…My husband Phil was having trouble walking in late summer and started to fall due to what he thought was edema, but it was not…he said he went to the doctor but found out this was not true..when he went to ER in mid-January he died 3 weeks later…we were married for 40 years and he was the love of my life…

    After my dad died 6 1/2 years ago had a lot of guilt and a perspective that helped me as well was replacing the word guilt with regret guilt is something you did with ill intentions to harm somebody and regret is how you wish things had gone or been done differently.

    I was basically verbally abusive to my husband when he was sick. I don't know why.We lost a time that could have been precious. Why did I act that way??? I hurt him.so much.

    Hi Denise .. I’ve heard many people say a similar thing and feel guilty about being short tempered or angry when caring for their loved ones.. frustration, fear, loss and exhaustion can make you react in ways that you normally wouldn’t… it’s hard to feel like you do about how you spoke to your husband when he was sick. Talk it through with a trusted person and be kind to yourself.. sure it’s normal to loose your normal self under immense pressure.. and eventually even forgive yourself 🙏❤️

    @@lifelosshope I don't understand my self at all. When he got sicker I did not take him back to the hospital soon enough. We had already gone back two times ,maybe I didn't want to believe he was sick enough to go bsck.I was overwhelmed when I needed to step in and make decisions I made bad choices. Maybe partly because he had been was stubborn. Not I didn't want to hurt him, despite everything I loved him

    You’re so right Viv .. the guilt and ruminations of what ifs and if onlys are such a tortuous part of grief.. allowing your mind to work through these emotions and finding someone to listen is vital. Sending love and comfort x
