Still grieving the loss of my dog
It’s been almost 4 months since I lost my best friend and the waves of grief still hit me just as hard as the day we lost her.
She was our family dog of almost 7 years and although me and my family cried and grieved her together during the day and following week we lost her, we’ve all kind of let it settle in our hearts separately. Me and my family have never been ones to ever talk about our feelings and I’ve never been truly comfortable being vulnerable like that with them. I’ve been wanting to reach out to my friends for support because they were very supportive when I first shared the news but I also don’t want to make them uncomfortable with my situation. None of them have experienced grief in their lives yet so I know they won’t understand the feelings I’m having. I know it’s an uncomfortable subject but it just makes me sad that I haven’t really had anyone in my life check up on me.
I don’t know, it really just feels like nobody would understand me in my life and the only person who would is my dog.
