I can understand doing this Nikkey...but being stuck in that awful place called isolation prevents you from talking about your loss and also your dads' life. I wouldnt, couldn't handle talking about Michaels suicide for 8 years. I missed out on a lot of living but couldn't help myself.
6. Isolation -Many people find themselves emotionally withdrawn from the world. They have small outbursts of anger and can't understand why.
Through isolaton they move further into their protective shell,
away from the very feelngs they must confront in order to recover.
Our dear BJ does/is doing this and it's a giant step backwards in her healing.
