I lost a relative recently and I’ve been struggling with the grieving aspect. I haven’t cried or gotten visceral anger. I’m mostly just generally unpleasant right now. Impatient, easily annoyed and lack energy. Part of it is the cognitive dissonance associated. The individual was complicated, more good in the world overall, but, undeniably a lot of bad too.

    Oh, and LSD is huge for me when I need to accept something I’m unhappy about. Acceptance is the hardest part and the biggest obstacle to healing.

      I’d like to point out if you’re a regular or experienced user of LSD or something similar it can be useful for these types of things, but I wouldn’t recommend OP or someone trying it for the first time during a time like this.
