Wishing you all the best

Post Reply New Topic

I joined this site a couple of months ago eager to meet other people with Aspergers Syndrome and understand myself a little better. Unfortunately the now pandemic hit the globe at about that time so I never really settled in here. But as we’re all off work I thought now might be a good time to return as there really isn’t much else to do. Unfortunately due to Covid-19 I have so far lost two relatives, my mom and my great grandfather. The rest of us are all fine though so hopefully that’s it for infections in my home. We weren't surprised with great-grandpa but my mom was awful to see. I've never had a death before so it is hard to adjust to living without them.
I hope you are all ok and not too anxious over everything going on? I am anxious but controlling it. Trying to keep busy as possible. I’ve been watching a lot of movies lately, mostly animations which has kept me entertained. I was reading but I end up with a real bad headache so I stopped that again.

I know I don’t know anyone but I just want to say that I wish you all the very best for the hard times ahead. Take care everyone.

So sorry to hear that you are going through this time. I don't know what I can say in such tough times as saying the right word in these situations is not my strong point.
All I can donis give you a warm welcome into the family known as "Wrong Planet". Welcome.

I echo MountainGoat’s sentiments.

Really sorry for your loss.

My sympathies also on the loss of your mum and your great-grandpa.
Based on what I've read here in the Haven a few years back, it can take some of us on the autism spectrum a little longer to process these type of losses and we might process them in different ways.
Take your time and be gentle with yourself; everyone reacts differently, there isnt "one right way" to express the grief.

Very sorry for your loss.

I know from personal experience that this is a lot different for people on the spectrum.

Take it one day at a time.

Sincerely sorry to hear what's happened. Sending hugs and heartfelt condolences. As others have said, we do tend to process and grieve in different ways than is considered "the norm". I certainly did. I take comfort in the belief that they're watching over me in my most difficult times, sending strength, and I cling tightly to the memories and all that they taught. Grief can be a massive rollercoaster. Stay safe yourself and take care. xx

Sorry to hear of your loss

And thank you for you for wishing everyone well

Take care

Oh sh*t - I'm so sorry for you. There is always a big emptyness that remains. But you can't change the things that did happen. For this stay a positive way please! Any kind of depression is just a big sh*t and doesn't helps at all.

Guess I'm over the infection myself now as well as my kids are. If wasn't a big thing to me but I fear for my parents. I can't even support them a lot because I'm living quite far away now.

How do you manage to watch or read anything without being distracted? That happens to me for smaller problems...

Thank you for posting this lovely message and so sorry to hear this.
