Yes, my wife is declining in a Care Home, I have been experiencing deep grief and loss for no longer having her with me at home, then I thought, she always spoke of decorating her own coffin and now I am looking into myself and her family and friends doing this for her. I think this has shifted my Mind.

I am very new to you Jo. I was on a road trip and I came across your YouTube Chanel. I haven’t stopped watching. I very suddenly lost my fiancé 6 days before our 7 year anniversary. It’s been 19 months and I am just now trying to begin this process. I have tried and failed in the past. How you explain things truly is helping. Thank you for all your videos. I have shared with a very dear friend of mine who lost her husband of 25 years 2 months after my fiancé past away. You such a gem!

I lost my only child 7 years ago and my life has steadily dissolved into hell. I’ve been diagnosed with prolonged grief disorder and ptsd. I have found your videos very helpful. Please keep up the good work.

My husband hung himself in October 22 and blamed me for his actions by leaving lots of notes. I do not have support so finding it very hard to deal with the grief and anger I feel.

Our thoughts are not truths and our emotions are not facts. This one will stick with me for a while and I wrote it down. Thank you so much. I’ve been looking for a comfort saying to help guide me and my family. Thank you so much ❤.

This gave me an Aha moment. I wake up during the night and my mind is racing with thoughts. Never took the time to write them down and see what the theme of these thoughts are. I plan on watching this video again to really digest the information. This video hit home with me. Just for context I am 18 months into this journey. Hopefully journaling my thoughts will give me insights to help myself persevere.

I'm in a pattern of grieving. I try so hard to get out of it and yes it is related to a lifetime of consecutive trama, one after the other. It's like trying to wade out of a lake of glue. I KNOW what I should be doing and still self destruct. It is so hard, far harder than I thought would happen, to break out of these self destruct.

I actually laughed when you said grief is ‘sitting in the shit!’ That is definitely what it is although I find it so hard to do that! I always want to find distraction, but I am aware and I try to sit in the shit ❤

[zephyrk]

My husband took his life. in Sept 2022... the guilt is beyond measure....I've tried to persevere, but it's easier said than done

[sallybrown]

Sitting in the shit ! Yea that makes sense to me ! your videos are so good. Thanks for posting this!

[dredwardchisnall]

Thank you again for your quiet and kind insight. For some reason
kindle joy in life and stop beating myself up. You are a light in my darkness madam, and I thank God I found your gentle wisdom. Dr Edward Chisnall. Edward. Thanks.

[maryannehaffner]

Wow! Learned a lot. So that is what is happening...problem solving or problem progressing. Loops of thoughts have generated questions. This is very helpful. TY, Jo.

My son could just as equally have been killed by a hit man as taken his own life. So I am grateful for this. My mind is everywhere.

[sesvaoffice]

thank you for these amazing videos which communicate from an intellectual perspective, that I find reassuring and comforting. Yesterday I think I was falling down a perseverating rabbit hole, which frightened me. This morning I woke not being able to recall or experience the thoughts which was a relief, but found your video which was serendipitious. I will be taking key points and putting them on the fridge to pull me back if I feel I'm teetering on the edge of the rabbit hole.

THANK YOU SO MUCH DR. JO❤. This lecture is HELPFUL 💖.

The Beatles said, then we will remember things we said today. That is my problem. I don’t want to remember some of the things we said and I can’t figure out which of the things is most painful, the loving things or the hurtful things…..I don’t know, I know what forgiveness is so why can’t I figure this out.
