“Hello --It is May 11h and welcome to Wonderland Fellow Griever. — “You’ve just stepped Down the Rabbit Hole — where mental health meets madness after loss. Let’s get real, together. This is your daily dose of truth, grief, and yes, just the right bit of madness.”

WEEK 2: Madness & Acceptance

Day 11: Today’s truth is: “I give myself very good advice, but I very seldom follow it.” Idea: Struggling with self-care. 

If you’re anything like me, you know what might help: getting outside, texting a friend, taking a breath, eating something nourishing. And yet? The doing part often feels impossible.

That’s not laziness. It’s grief. It drains the energy even from the smallest acts of care. But here’s the thing: You deserve care, even now. Especially now.

So today, don’t try to fix everything. Don’t make a to-do list. Just pick one small thing you would tell someone else to do — and offer it to yourself.

Drink a glass of water. Step outside for two minutes. Lie down and close your eyes without apology. Tiny steps count. You count.

So, that's all for now...that's the nugget to carry today

Take a breath. Take what you need. leave the rest. And come back tomorrow because, remember, you're not broken—you're grieving. And you're not alone in this madness. ---I'll be right here Talk Soon."
