dealing with death phases

I think there are many ways one accepts a terminal diagnosis. There are phases that one may go through or not go through. They are Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and then Acceptance. Some may go through all and some may not. They don't always go in order. I think one goes through these phases in themselves and they resolve them within themselves. Doesn't seem anything fair about it but people are amazing and in the end most people have worked through it.

So, I want to restate it below for easier reading.. I was trying to rush through while dealing with kids at the same time. I was afraid that my question would not be accepted due to the limited quantity of questions you take daily. So, here goes for easier understanding: 9/25/09 T4, Free------------------------- 0.7 (Range 0.8-1.8 ng/dL) TSH 3rd generation-------- 4.55 (Range .4-4.50) T3 Uptake ---------------------34 (Range 22-35%) T4 (thyroxine) total----------4.1 (Range 4.

for the baby and how much will effect him. I usually a very emotional person when dealing with death and I feel like a horrible person for not allowing myself to feel bad. What do I do???

Just like falling in love takes time so does dealing with a passing of a loved one.Just opposite ways of feeling.Love and loss,two parts of life that both hurt.For loving anyone or anything,such as a pet can lead to pain.All feelings lead to pain and despair,eventually.So do we stop feeling,stop loving,stop caring,no we just learn to adjust to our new lives without that loved one that pet,that friend.whom ever.Death ends a life,not a relationship.

Shut off our phones and mourned our babies death. We went to this nice winery with a beautiful river that ran by it and at sunset picked a flower for every week of our babies life with us in my belly and sent them down the river with thoughts and prayers of that journey. I don't know if it will help you but it at least gave me some closure. It's such a hard thing to go threw. I understand.

Anyone else dealing with greasy hair? I've never really had to deal with it before and the last two days have been awful. Any remedies?

I had my first son, Jeremiah, 3years ago. My husband and I really wanted a girl, but when we found out it was a boy, I actually found myself to be UPSET. For a while after I found out, I walked around wishing I wasn't pregnant with him. Of course I love my son to death, and can't imagine life without him. Now that I'm pregnant again, I'm having this mothers instinct that its a girl. But I don't want to go through the disappointment again.

m the only person with a spouse with addiction issues but the deep down thoughts.. Like is it me? Is it something I did? Or why does he lie to me? Like its always my fault.. I have lost sight of myself & my needs due to his addiction.. Like I had said my life is a roller coaster and some days are great some days are bad. It just depends on if he is using or not? When they are good I feel like we just sweep the problem under the rug & if I bring anything up its a fight.

Hi, I am having a very difficult time dealing with family without having modd swings. I am trying to go to meetings, but my schedule and family situations are keeping me from doing so. Funny, I could have gone to bars and just neglected family in the past, but now, I am dealing with family situations and trying to be present. However, my children and my husband are DRIVING ME CRAZY. I keep serenity prayering and it helps for a little bit.

One of them is taking outpatient classes to help, but where do I personally start?

Hi Jem....sounds like panic attacks heightened by the tragedy with your mum. See your doc and let him or her know what you're doing, tapering, and also what you're dealing with. Sometimes you'll need help from a medical professional as you work through these phases.

MY 11 YEAR OLD HAS BEEN UNDER ALOT OF STRESS, HE WAS PUT THROUGH EXTREME BULLING AT SCHOOL WHERE THE POLICE HAVE GOTTEN INVOLVED, PLUS THE DEATH OF A CLOSE UNCLE. RECENTLY I HAVE FOUND THAT HE HAS BEEN WEARING AND USING DIAPERS? HE HAS BEEN TAKING THEM FROM A FRIENDS HOUSE. IM REALLY SCARED AND CONCERNED.

Honestly, I wouldn't start trying for a baby right now. I think it's too soon - especially if you're just in a new relationship and you're still dealing with the pain and emotions of the previous miscarriage which wasn't that long ago. I would wait till you've been in your relationship a little longer and you've healed more too. You might feel fine some days, but not other days and getting pregnant is not going to magically fix that.
