The Grief Channel
Великобритания
Добавлен 23 авг 2022
Welcome to The Grief Channel, dedicated to normalizing conversations around grief, death and dying. Grief can be incredibly tough, but is a natural part of life and can be transformative, instead of being something to be feared and locked away. Our mission is to share knowledge, research and stories that people can relate to, and to provide solace and support. Content comes from Good Grief Festival, which, since its launch in October 2020, has reached over 25,000 people in the UK around the world. Speakers and participants have come from all walks of life, united in sharing their knowledge and experiences of grief. Good Grief is run by a team at the University of Bristol, working with a wide network of collaborators and supporters, with funding from the National Lottery Community Fund.

Attachment to Suffering in Grief - with Julia Samuel Charlene Lam
Thank you so much! Where can I find methods to induce sensory experiences of my loved one?
Iv just lost my husband & I’m finding it hard to cope without him . I also have anxiety which is getting worse. I’m 💔 . Please pray for me . Thank you. 🙏
This is so good! What an amazingly generous and knowledgeable person David is; I just love the compassion and wisdom he brings to his practice. I’m so sad he knows how I’m feeling, but I see the meaning in his life - that he brings his personal experience of grief and as a result is more able to reach his fellow grievers. Thank you for sharing this 🥰
I just found out a former close friend died unexpectedly, and I am angry with myself for not reaching out to try to resolve the long ago issue we had. No closure, no chance for resolution, all gone completely. And I am angry, at myself. And of course greatly shocked and saddened by the loss. I hate never knowing what good or bad, would have emerged from a hey after all these years. At least I would have known the final outcome, and this sudden death was not it.
My partner died suddenly and traumatically before my eyes and the quote Dr. Selman read of Dr. Koster's resonates deeply with me. Is the talk from October 2023 available anywhere? Thank you for sharing <3
It is so very much true!
This was extremely helpful for me. This resonated more than my grief share group because it solely focuses on losing a spouse. I lost my husband 3 months ago. I feel so much despair, sadness, loneliness, and anger. I miss him terribly. I am overwhelmed with all that I need to do in handling the finances, maintaining the house, and medical bills. A lot of this my husband did, unfortunately.

There's a lot to learn from this journey but it mAkes you stronger more resilient
Very helpful, thx.
Julia Samuel is incredible. Sooo insightful. Her words are sooo healing for me.
I'm so impressed that Raynor & Moth had the gumption to undertake further challenging walks in Iceland and Scotland.

I have just lost my husband suddenly. It's just been 5days and my emotions are on a roller coaster. I feel like I'm falling down a hole.
This was very helpful, thank you for sharing :)
❤
Julia's description of what grief is and what it isn't rings so true.
This is very wise advise. Thank you.
In the fall of 2022, My lil lady felt ill, We did the hospital trips, Followed up, Followed doctors advice, Followed up. On the morning of December 13th, 2022, While I was getting dressed for work, I discovered My lil lady, Unalive in my bed. I’ve faced hard times before, However nothing like this.
I am so sorry for you loss.
Rubbish
?
Bless this man
I was living in Vermont and still am where my partner and I built our own house together. One day law officers came to my door and told me Joe was dead. I collapsed. They picked me up and brought me in to my house , our house. The shock was so severe I didn’t even feel alive more like floating. Joe had also been the main source of income so there was the extra blow of eventually how was I to survive on my own.
Thank you. I feel the same way.
Do you have a video about alienated parents and grandparents? It’s heartbreaking and we have that loss of control, connection, shame. There’s so little information. Thank you
My common law husband was murdered in front of me. His mother blames me and this funeral. Has definitely divided many.
"Trippled as a result of the VACCINE" not a fake flu...!!!
My oldest sister passed suddenly of cardiac arrest on January 2nd 2024. Just one week after her 4th booster. We fought like cats and dogs over this topic and begged her not to. I’m the only nurse in my family and the only one that never received it. I’m so devastated and angry and sad and I wish I was wrong about her cause of death.
Did he just say “we-ness” ?
Best book I read in YEARS! Thank you @Raynor Winn
Life is a flawed design. I’m not a fan. It’s just to painful. Pain, pain, pain.
It sure is. Most people believe life is what we all make it. And there is truth to it. But reality is tough and does not make sense despite living in a world where it is based on sensing. It is mind boggling how humans deal with life. 😮💨
Pleas help I have morning sickness every morning I have to vomit. I can't accept that my husband is gone
Wow Amazing. Thank you Julia Samuel. Today is 87th day of my mom's passing unexpectedly at the hospital. I am now more understanding of grief and memory. Words can not express my pain and guilt. Only thru your video I can move one step forward toward healing.
Julia is great. The host not so much and she would have had a better video if she hadn’t included herself into the presentation but let Julia be the focus.
What a lovely lady x
20:05. Whenever you're in your body your cortisol levels go down. As😂 opposed to jumping out of your skin or being beside yourself et cetera.
Thank you for this video. Your channel could use more content regarding grief as the result of losing a pet. Pets occupy unique places in our lives and they're often more highly integrated into our day to day lives than most of the people we know. Losing my best friend of the last 17 years has been one of the most devastating experiences I've had in my life. It's time for our culture as a whole to take this loss more seriously.
It would of been really helpful to hear this 32 years ago when my Dad died suddenly through elective death.
Thank you for sharing this.
This woman has lied about everything. A fraud, working for very dark forces.
How do I get through this pain of losing my Mark? 4 months ago and I don't know what to do ❤
I lost my husband a month ago😢we came back from a wonderful holiday. He wasn’t ill- it was completely unexpected. He was only 52. We’ve been married 24yrs. 2 beautiful children. My daughter it getting married in 3months. My son found his dad. It’s really difficult parenting alone. Feels like the world is swallowing me alive😭💔
In the last 3 yrs so many unexplained sudden deaths, very strange.
That is heartbreaking I am so sorry. My son found his Dad he was 54 years old and it was unexpected they think it was his heart. We are devastated. We met when I was 26 we had 27 years together and I don't know how to keep going. We just had his funeral yesterday and it's hitting me he really isn't coming back. My son can barely talk and I don't know how to help my kids get through this. He was such a special one of a kind person just way too young. I feel your heartache.
In November I lost my girlfriend of more than 14 years to sepsis… she was just 38 and it looked just like a flu. In fact, she got the flu and then got infected by a strep A bacteria that caused the sepsis. It took her away from me in just a few days, now I'm devastated… I took her to the hospital twice, she was checked by 2 different doctors and neither of them diagnosed sepsis. A few hours after the second visit we had to go back to the hospital, now with clear symptoms of pneumonia. But then it was too late…
I feel that if my pain and guilt diminishes and I become happy and content again , it would mean that my love has lessened . I never want that to happen even if I have to suffer like this for the rest of my life . My wife died of cancer nearly three years ago but I suffer the same pain constantly . There is so much I want to say to her . If I could only tell her one more time that I adore her . She gave me the last 56 years of her life . I often feel I can no longer live without her . I just carry on for my son and granddaughter . The house remains the same as that terrible day she left it for the last time to go into hospital . I still have all her personal things and her car . Rest in contentment and peace my darling Janet . I hope one day we can spend eternity together .x
I am so sorry for your loss
@@matheldas Thank you. I appreciate that.
I'm really sorry to hear that, I only got 5 years with my beautiful wife before cancer took her away and I feel exactly the same, Tina said she wanted me to be happy again but I can't see how without her here.
I don't know if my partners death is sudden or not. He was ill with heart problems for a long time and he was in hospital awaiting an operation. On the Friday things seemed to be going well, by Sunday a blood clot travelled to his bowel, on the Wednesday they told me nothing could be done and by Friday he was dead. He was on such strong painkillers that there was no time to say goodbye. I know that was better for him but I wish we had been able to have those conversations. I hope he knew how much I loved him.
Thank you for the video. Where can I find visualisation exercise when feeling stuck or numb after loss?
Extremely powerful and helpful .thank you
Help me
Hi. Just saw your post. Sounds like what I would say. I’m sorry you are struggling. I’ve only found similar stories to mine online. It has really really helped me knowing other people have gone through what I have and what they have done and how they feel. Helps me feel not so alone and I do see I am not the only person in the world with devastating loss.
This is my life . My Partner of almost 23 yrs died all of a sudden . He was a type 2 diabetic. He was also a recovering alcoholic . He had been doing so well in outpatient. He was cut by a Rusty nail. He took it out and we thought ,Ok. All good! The following day his foot was in pain . His breathing was becoming more shallow . When The paramedics got here They took his blood Sugar . It was 400 .. They tried calling me in the middle of the night . I was a sleep . I called them Back when I woke up. Instead of they telling me ok . Travis is ready to be Picked up.. the tone was More like .. Hello , My name is “ Dr. So and so “ we have been trying to get of hold of you , unfortunately Travis went into cardiac arrest .. “I’m sorry we’ve done Everything we can” my heart sunk ..
Thank you Lesel and David. David's great work amplified with a great interview. This has been really helpful to me. Thanks again, Ean
Thank you ♥️💔
So much I'm struck by. I'm an introvert that's developed useful extroverted qualities. I'm a very funny, successful high functioning anxiety riddled, contained mess, who feels misunderstood, because my authenticity is clouded by who I think others want me to be. You know, in a nutshell. Others think i've got it made. What I tell them is "the grass might look greener it still needs mowing" eeesh...ain't it a game huh?
