a very close friend of my sister died last night after a 10 year battle with breast cancer. I didn't know this woman very well, but my sister was very close with her. They were in the same congregation and this woman supported my sister through a lot of tough times.

My sister called me this morning to talk about it because she is just so upset she doesn't know what to do. I talked with her for a while and tried to comfort her, sent some healing energy to her, she doesn't really believe in that, but I did it anyway. Well, now for my problem... I am overcome with grief, I am ok for a few minutes and then I just start sobbing and feeling like I want to die. Someone, please explain what is going on. I have linked to people emotionally before, but never to this degree and I don't know how to control it. Please, any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Dawn

Dawn. I just read your message and I don't want to leave you alone. I am not one with wise words but perhaps you are experiencing something very normal. The fact that we die and it hit you. When you said you feel like dying, please don't do anything that would hurt yourself Dawn. Maybe you didn't mean actually dying but you are so grief stricken yourself it feels like you are dying. You were there to comfort someone in need and it overwhelmed you after which is quite common.
I will pray for you and light a candle for you Dawn to help you get through this. Lauren

Thank you Lauren. I didn't mean that I literally want to die, it's just that the grief was so unexpected and overwhelming, I wasn't prepared for it. I know that my sister is somewhat unstable and I don't know if I am getting her emotions or if I am empathizing with her or what, it's kind of scary.

I just wanted to say thank you to Lauren and those of you who saw this and sent me help in any form. I did a grounding exercise and released much of the excess negative energy that was making me feel so badly. Now I just feel very tired and I have a headache. I'm going to drink a cup of tea and rest. I thank you all again, peace to you all.

You're welcome Dawn, I really care. I didn't think of a grounding exercize, that was a good idea. Sorry about your headache. Your emotions went through so much because you care so much for your sister I'm sure. Take care now.
Lauren.

:hugz: Try taking a nice relaxing bath with a white candle lit and put some grounding sea salts in the bath and just let the excess stuff you have wash itself off and down the drain. :hugz:

so sorry for your sisters loss. Energy sent to you both.
I know how grief/negative energy can affect you. 2006 was a bad year for me,and a month and a half ago we had 2 friends of my mother in laws in the hospital who werent doing too well. I didnt handle it too well either,even though I dont know them too well.(Im also pregnant). The build up of negativity is what got to me and i had to find a way to release it all. I also found myself crying/sobbing off and on. grounding was a very good idea,thats what i had to do as well.
Take care of yourself! :hugz:

Thank you both for your kind words and warm wishes. I think the bath sounds heavenly, unfortunately I can't do that right now. I will light a white candle and imagine the bath though :)

Thank you so much, I didn't even stop to think of doing that for my sister's friend. Her name was Robin, by the way.
