His Sisters Grief

Today would have been Chris’s 4th wedding anniversary. Instead of celebrating them I am left reflecting on what it means to be a life partner/spouse and what that commitment and responsibility means to me.

Not the happily ever after we all hoped for...

It’s not you, it’s me…

Signs of apathy include: Disengaging or withdrawing from work, hobbies or spending time with loved ones. I’ve never had any issue with self motivation, lack of enthusiasm or anything along those lines. But since I’ve finished with Chris’s house I feel like I have no real sense of purpose.

New blog post is up: It’s World Su***de Prevention Day - Tell Your Sister!
And Cem and I launched our merch store and Etsy page to support our mission to support men’s mental health struggles. We are committed not only to starting the conversation but to keeping the conversation going. Chris didn’t share his mental health struggles with us, he didn’t give us a chance to support him when he needed us so you can be damn sure we will never stop talking about it.
So go tell your sister to check out our blog, merch site and Etsy store! 💚 https://www.hissistersgrief.com/blog/blog-post-091024

Now that I think about it “high” functioning may be a little overstated on some days. Too bad I already published it 😬

If you don’t know me, hell even if you do, you would not know how much I struggle on a daily basis. What exactly I struggle with; I am still trying to define.

You can heal a broken heart maybe, but a grieving heart will never heal. There is a piece of my heart that is gone.

You cannot focus on processing your grief until you focus on yourself. YOU need to find YOUR inner strength first. You need to feed your soul to strengthen your heart.

61 days. It’s been 61 days since my brother made the decision to take his life and I am beyond proud of all that I have accomplished in the past 61 days.

It’s been 2 months, 61 days to be exact, since my brother made the decision to end his life. 61 days since my heart has been whole.

As much as I need to be done with this damn house I’m not ready to be done with it. I’m not done yelling at Chris.

My grief IS selfish - because it’s MINE. It’s okay to be selfish for the right reasons

I have made no excuses, this blog is for ME. By sharing my experience, it helps ME. I will not apologize for how I grieve or the healthy outlets I use to process MY grief.

Can we discuss how financially expensive su***de is? In addition to the emotional toll, there is also a huge financial toll that no one ever chats about.

Su***de is expensive y’all

It's a surreal feeling to wake up knowing you will never have a brother again..follow my su***de survivor's grief journey

The day I woke up brother-less. That has not happened since Dec 22, 1982.

I stated a blog to document my grief journey. Su***de sucks - being the one left to pick up the pieces sucks...being called cruel and heartless sucks - follow along as I navigate this crazy ride

Let’s go back to the night Chris left us….
