Hi to my lovely, lovely, lovely,

Patreon supporters.

Here is a bonus episode for you.

I want to be able to talk to you about loss and grief,

and not just about loss and grief,

but the different kinds, the different types.

You know, when people will sometimes be referred to my former cult member support group,

it's sometimes after they have been referred to other support groups where the issues that they

dealt with were kind of close to what they needed, but not quite exact enough.

And one of the things I notice a lot is that people will come to the support group saying they went to

a group for people who were grieving, people who had dealt with loss because they really did feel like

they had a huge loss, a loss of community, a loss of everything. But it was slightly different than the grief group that they went to,

so they didn't feel like they really fit in. And so I want to be able to talk to you about different

kinds of grief and loss. And then you might have an understanding of if you're feeling that,

why you're feeling it that way, and what brought that on.

So let's get started.

The first kind is a non-death loss. So you can grieve the loss of actually anything that matter to you.

It could be a physical ability that now you can't achieve.
