Seeing pictures off people you have loved and lost is always difficult, when my Grandfather died - I couldn't bare looking at the pictures, I had some off him ill, and some where he was okay, I got rid off the ones that he didn't look to well in, not like thrown them away - But hid them, I kept all the happy ones and behind each one I wrote a special message - Something positive about him, a reason he's happy, I know he's safe now, and send him my prayers everyday - But then it varies on what the memories are to be honest, right? It often helps discussing memories, do you have any siblings, family members, friends you feel comfortable talking to?

*hug*'s - I like the new user name

Take care - Stay strong!

You're right Heather, it's not. Classic that the best response in this thread comes from one of the youngest members of the community. To those who are taking the piss, have you actually even taken the effort to read what she's had to say here? If you have and you still think it's cool to belittle this thread then you need to have a word with yourselves.

Heather, I hope you don't mind I've just changed the title so people know straight away what it's about, I'm also going to split it into paragraphs to make it a bit easier to follow and move it into the relationships section.

Well done for sharing, that must have been hard for you.

ETA: have just seen you've removed the long post you made - sorry you felt the need to do that - feel free to post again when you're feeling a little better.

Hi Heather

It might help for you to talk to someone who can help you with putting these difficult memories into some kind of perspective so that you can store them away again.

You can't change the past, but it is possible to change how you remember it, and also how you make sense of those memories.

My suggestion is that you contact your local branch of Relate, who work with all sorts of family problems. If you are under 18 it won't cost you anything, or if you are older and don't have much money, they will take that into account.

You can find out where their nearest branch is through the address finder on their website (top right hand corner) here's a link for it:-

Hope this is helpful to you - take care.
