There are a number of ways to ease the transition of pain into comfort. One important factor is to not hold in the pain. It's okay, be expressive! Below is a list of facebook groups we feel will help surround you with others who have gone through similar pain and/or are going through the same situation as you.
We recommend you check out and join a couple of groups for the most effect.

Deep Grief Great Love Gallery of Healing

Description:
My father unexpectedly passed away—Mom found him slumped over in his chair on April 1st, 2008, due to a blown artery, caused by failure of his pacemaker and blood thinners-- and then three years later my sister and I lost our mom to Stage four Bone and Breast Cancer, that took her quickly after her May diagnoses on August 3rd, 2011. Neither time was the loss easy to cope with, but the loss of my mother, took me into a deep depression and days filled with dark thoughts and anxiety adding to the complexity of healing properly. By writing, painting, drawing and many other outlets encouraged in my grief groups, I was able to find some peace in my grief. The grief groups stopped and I continued creating to honor my parents. This group is to encourage sharing your own expressions of grief. What can you create to express your loss and love for a loved one? No idea will be too small or too big to express how you are dealing with your deep grief and great love for your loved one. Here you can submit your creative pieces freely. Heal with your art with no criticism. Join in on group ideas. Need an idea to get the creative ideas flowing? DGGL Gallery of Healing can help you as well with ideas. Ideas to bring out your hidden creative side and an outlet to express your grief.
