“Hello --It is May 7th 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 1: I discuss Identity & Transformation

Day 7: Today’s truth is: "But I don't want to go among mad people." Idea: Feeling detached from the world. 

The world feels absurd after loss. People complaining about trivial things. Celebrating holidays. Asking you when you’ll be "back to normal."

You might feel like a ghost — present, but not fully seen. And that’s a hard place to live from.

But you’re not alone in that feeling. You’re not mad. You’re just grieving in a world that doesn’t understand how deep and wide this pain goes.

Take the space you need. Say no. Opt out. Let your grief be your compass, not their comfort.

There’s a strange kind of sanity in naming the madness. And you, my friend, are more sane than most.

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."
