hi Jon, you may not know why you will have a relapse or there are moments why you do know why, but all it may take is just something small that would reactivate your past thoughts such as PTSD and because you feel like this then it could happen at any time.
Sorry to hear but losing your dad and then your girlfriend are two big losses which you haven't been able to settle in your mind so how you feel will keep happening unless you are able to satisfy that this has happened and then feel comfortable in your own mind. Geoff.

Hi Jon, good to hear from you again. I'm pleased to hear you're feeling better.

Yes, grief is an unpredictable thing, can pop up when you least expect it. Still does for me sometimes, many years later. But if you know what it is it's easier to deal with. When it hits me now I try to turn the pain into a sweeter sadness by focussing on good memories, even happy times when I was a child with my parents.

And, I do believe they are still with me, in my mind and my heart. In words that come out of my mouth that sound just like my mother haha. I believe they don't leave us whilever we remember them and know their influence is still within us.

And Jon, you will always be listened to here. That's what we're here for, and we genuinely care about each and every member.

Best wishes for the accreditation on Monday!
