Many {{{{{Hugs}}}}} and much love to you, Matt, and to all who feel overwhelmed right now. It’s hard, but you need to let that pain and those emotions work through you.
Keep your chin up Matt. It hurts now, big-time, but, the pain will ease. Remember your Dad with all the love you carry in your heart & don’t let anyone tell you “how long” to mourn. All of us are here for you, in our own lil digital, way & we’re sending you what support we can.
I am with you Cat. I have been trying to suppress my feelings for the sake of others right now. I wish I could go to your Cafe, I could use a Rabbit hug right about now.
That’s the thing about feelings, if you keep trying to ignore them, they will pop up strengthened by your fear of them. Or worse, if you succeed in shutting them down, you could lose the ability to feel much of anything. Ask me how I know.
I think there can be a time to distract yourself from feelings temporarily. Like, if they’re too much for you to handle all at once, distracting yourself for a while can help you handle them in pieces. That’s my experience, anyway.

Oh, no! What are Cat’s feelings, and what are they about? Maybe sadness or grief? Rabbit is there for you and so are we.

Rabbit’s Mom would come in handy right about now!

Very good lesson to learn, for those of us who have trouble letting ourselves ‘feel’. Thank you.

Yes . . . allowing yourself to feel the feelings is part of the process of them transforming with time.

When overwhelmed, I think of being a kitten, being tenderly held, it helps me to relax and gain perspective on feelings.
