Since Rachael passed, everyone has recommended grief counseling. And everyone has been super supportive and understanding when I just wasn't ready. There's something scary about seeking out this total stranger, who is trained in emotion, psyche, etc, and telling her your entire sob story. Can I trust her? Will she be helpful or will I waste my time? Will I be seriously uncomfortable? Am I even close to being ready to say it all out loud?
I made the call today. I felt dizzy and my heart was racing, but I left a message asking her to call me back for an appointment.
