From people who came through it

  • โ€œPlease be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. A grief counsellor helped me more than I expected. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ€

  • โ€œPlease be gentle with yourself and I wasn't, and it made everything harder and I talk to them out loud sometimes and it helps more than it should. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ€

  • โ€œAbout three years ago, that was me. Back then it was her lead still on the hook. I wake up most days without that dread. It's slow, but it does come back. Keep going, even slowly.โ€

    Patience P ยท been through losing a pet
  • โ€œI know it feels like too much right now, and people might say the wrong things like it was just a cat. They don't know how much space that animal took up in your life. For me, the empty basket was the worst part, and the walks we did without him. What helped was letting myself cry whenever it came, not on a schedule. And finding one person who got it, even online. You are not weird for how much this hurts. It's real, and it will slowly get softer, not smaller. Just keep going, and if you can, keep the routine if it feels okay.โ€
