#Grief
If the only thing you managed to do in 2025 was survive, know that surviving is also worth celebrating. Zoe Clark-Coates @zoeadelle

Sigh…
"I did not make it through this year by being fearless; I made it through by getting up while my chest was heavy and my thoughts were loud. I lost parts of myself, I broke in private, and I still showed up for my life when I had almost nothing left to give. That is the kind of strength no one celebrates, but it is the reason I am still standing." -Steve De'lano Garcia

Apple Health suggested a Mental Health quiz. Yeah, I’m sad… most of the time 😢 #grief
Your answers indicate you may be experiencing symptoms of moderate to severe depression at this time.

"You handled it so well" No, I didn't. I went insane, lost my spark, bled in silence, shattered in private, and wore a smile that lied better than any mask could. I had no choice but to survive

They say grief is love with nowhere to go. But that's not true. It goes everywhere. It seeps into your mornings, into the silence between waking and remembering. It's in the way you still make too much coffee out of habit, not hope. In the way you set out two mugs, then put one back without saying a word. Grief doesn't stay still. It finds them. It finds you. It follows you into rooms they've never been in. Into moments they were never part of. It's in the way you still look for them in crowds even though you know better. Because grief is not just missing someone. It's missing the parts of you that existed only in their presence. The laugh they used to pull out of you so easily. The hope you didn't even realize you carried until you couldn't anymore. It's becoming a stranger to the person you used to be when you were loved by them. And the cruelest part? They'll never know who you are now. They'll never meet the version of you that had to survive them. The one that got left behind. The one that wakes up with tired eyes and still gets out of bed, not because they're okay, but because they don't know what else to do. The one who's a little colder now. A little more cautious. Even with love. You think about who you've become since they left. And some nights, you wonder if they'd even recognize you. I mean, do you? Would they still love this version of you? This slower, heavier thing. Would they look at you the way they used to, with light in their eyes? Or would they feel like they've lost you, too? Because grief didn't really take them. It took you. They left, but it was you who disappeared. R.K. NIGHTINGALE

I was never one for rides. I’d like to get off now, please 🙏 #grief
Let me guess...you thought you were doing better? And then out of nowhere, bam. The tears. The ache. The guilt. The weight. Listen, grief isn't linear. It doesn't follow a schedule. You didn't do anything wrong. You're not starting over. You're looping through. It's normal to feel better one week and undone the next. Grief isn't a straight line, it's a spiral. And you're allowed to spiral without explanation. p.p.griffith IG
