How Grief Affects The Physical Body

Показать описание
Mass Mind Collective Consciousness:

It's surprising how grief can be. Your heart literally aches. A memory comes up that causes your stomach to clench or a chill to run down your spine. Some nights, your mind races, and your heart races along with it, your body so electrified with energy that you can barely sleep. Other nights, you're so tired that you fall asleep right away. You wake up the next morning still feeling exhausted and spend most of the day in bed.

So, What causes these physical symptoms? Research shows that emotional pain activates the same regions of the brain as physical pain. Grief can worsen health problems you already have and cause new ones. It batters the immune system, leaving you depleted and vulnerable to infection. The heartbreak of grief can thus affect us not only emotionally but physically as well.

Let’s talk about a few facts about GRIEF and how it affects us.

It will be 5 years this month that my only child, my son passed away. He was 39 and paraplegic. I took care of him 24/7. I was by his bed when he took his last breath. That was the hardest thing in my life that I have had to do. But I was there for him and he wasn’t alone. Honestly it don’t get no easier, I just have to live with it. I’m in counseling now, it helps. But I do still feel guilty, that he is gone, and I am still here. But I know it was his time, see I had 12 extra years with him. In 2006 he had a accident that left him paraplegic and a lot of health issues, the doctors on gave him 15 to 20% chance of survival. He proved them wrong. Nine days short of a year, he finally got out of the hospital/ rehabs. And I took him home. He had good days and bad.
People don’t understand you can have it all, but in the blink of a eye it’s gone. People never take nothing for granted. Take it from someone who did. Now I’m all alone. So one day at a time, if that seems like to much, minute by minute.

Grieving for someone who is still alive is so hard…it never ends 😢💔

It’s not just when someone dies. The same happens when you lose a life long relationship.

It’s hard enough grieving the death of one’s parents, but losing an adult child who is still alive is worse, believe it or not. There is no coming to terms with it, adjusting to things and being able to eventually start healing. Worse still is that your adult child knows how much it hurts you but sets ‘boundaries’ that you shouldn’t talk about your grief to them because it makes them feel guilty. Way to stick the boots in when someone is already down and almost out for the count!

I’m here because, in 2014, I lost my firstborn, 41 yr old daughter, then, this year, July 4th 2023, the day before my 72nd bday, I suddenly lost my youngest, 36 yr old son, whom I was extremely close with. I find myself being, at times, hyper vigilant over my remaining child, 38 yr old son, though I try not to be. 💔 I do lean heavily on the Lord, who helped me go through the 9 years grieving my precious daughter, and, so, I know He will help me with this dear loss. It is still painful beyond words, but, there are also times of deep peace. I just try to take baby steps, a little at a time, and try not to avoid the tears, that come in waves(though I am sick of crying). Few understand(as they haven’t lost a child, so I don’t hold it against them), so most times, they leave us alone in our grief, believing they are doing us a favor. It is the most difficult road I have ever traveled…again. All the more reason I am grateful for my relationship with Christ. Thank you for this video. 💕

I'm trying any way possible to deal with losing my two closests friends within a month of each other. They were my support. Now I have none and it is devastating. This video is helpful. Thank you for it...

Thanks the loss of my son 6 months ago is still like a punch in the stomach. Some days I'm totally okay cause he suffered so much and as a retired RN I took care of him 8 to 12 hours a day. Some days I can't even think of it. Yes the joy and future just don't excite me but I plod on 1 day at a time. As a mom my heart is broken. 💔

Good to know my grief this time is normal. When I lost my mother I got depression but now with the grandmother it’s pretty normal. Thanks for the video

I lost my mum and dad a year apart he wanted to die after she passed . I cared for them both and felt mentally and physically exhausted after they died. And my health has suffered after this loss hoping to move on and come to terms with life now .😊

This video has clarified so much for me. My only child passed in 2004, aged 18. To this day I still grieve for him, not just for what was but what could have been. I'm a completely different person since he passed. Those who haven't lost a child think I'm "wallowing" in my grief and don't understand why I'm not the person I used to be. I thought I was abnormal but after viewing your video I realise I'm not. My priorities have changed for the better thanks to my loss. Thank you and God bless. 🙏

Sorry for your loss of Junior 😿 I lost my cat 3 months ago. She was 17 1/2. I've been having physical pain from suppressing my grief. I need to face it and feel it in order to heal.

My 35 year old daughter just died on Mother’s Day. My feelings are all over the place. So Im super worried about her 4 year old daughter and how she is processing everything.

My wife and I were married for 51 years and I cared for her with MS for almost all the 26 years she had MS. She wasn't able to ambulate the last 15 years and I used a power drive, wheelchair and hoist etc. I had a heart attack and pneumonia from the intense carer role for so long. I am well now and walk about 11, 000 steps a day. She passed in June 2022.

I always loved her but I am gay, medically proven. My grieving has been different. She knew I am gay and was totally accepting. As she neared the end, I thanked her for accepting me as her gay husband and she said "Of course! That was easy. Why wouldn't I?" But now I am no longer in a 51 year Mixed Orientation Marriage. I am not looking for a boyfriend or husband, but I have a smile deep down inside me. My grieving has mainly come from "friends" who have rejected me because I am gay. I was a Baptist Minister and have since been told I am not welcome to even attend church, just because I am gay. Time to move on and enjoy my life.

I experienced the greatest loss of my life in 2014. For 5 years I didn't exist anymore. I am some better now but I still miss beyond words, I still remember, I still think what would've been, I still ask God why. I probably, no I know I will, always wonder why, miss beyond words, think what would've been, and still ask God why, and I will never be the same as I was before this happened. I will soldier on but I will never be the same as I was. What bodily happened to me was mostly mental.
