7 Stages of Grief
7 Stages of Grief… 1. SHOCK & DENIAL- You will probably react to learning of the loss with numbed disbelief. You may deny the reality of the loss at some level, in order to avoid the pain.

I’ve gone 259 days so far without cutting and i know that my mom wouldn’t want me to mess that up on her account. again, thank...
