I lost a great love a few years back my grandfather before that and my father now a couple months ago. This is a great analogy of what it feels like. The mountain of monster people keep piling up and the temptation to just live in the grief is always there
I liked Amy’s “how are you doing today?” As it hits one the ever-changing cycle of grief. I hope Aubrey is getting all of the support, comfort, and love from her friends and family.
On a side note: One of the cool things that is pseudo-mentioned here is how media can help us define our feelings, in a round about way I mean. I did not like “The Gorge,” but, the fact that it was able to help someone (no matter how little it might be) help define their grief, and maybe even helped Aubrey (even if a drop-in-the-ocean-sized amount) is honestly always why I will enjoy movies, music, literature, cartoons, and tv.
I lost my husband and that analogy is so perfect. ❤ The way that helped me was to just take time as often as you can. Listening to my husband‘s favorite music helped me dive in and get some relief after.
She is spot on about grief. I’m a suicide widow too. No one tells you it can end like this. There is no way to prepare, to have anticipatory grief as you would with a chronic illness. Amy phrasing it as “today” is meaningful, because each day, hour, minute is different. Sending Aubrey strength. She’s not alone.
grief is a ball in a room. you can try to make the ball smaller or the room bigger but it still bounces around, hitting the walls every once in a while.
My husband was killed in Iraq 15 years ago. People would always tell me that I needed to get into therapy or I needed to get help… And all that stuff was true but what they didn't understand was for a solid year after he died My goals were to just get through the grocery line without panicking and leaving. It's so unbelievably overwhelming
Its has to be hard because its clear her husbands passing was unexpected, although he like others had mental health struggles, his passing appears to have been sudden with next to no warning for his spouse Aubrey Plaza.
That’s why I’m afraid to be attached to anyone. I can as a child I would cry thinking about how all my loved ones would eventually die. And seeing how she feels here… I’m finally in a loving and healthy relationship and I fear losing him in a tragic accident. We’re the same age and healthy. But stuff happens. Dumb drivers, accidents at work, anything can happen… I always stress for him to BE CAREFUL 😤 because I love him as care about him so deeply a part of me would die inside of I lost him.
I’ve never felt this way about anyone. And I’m scared of it but it’s so beautiful at the same time.
I really feel for her. When I left my abusive ex it felt like that. I still struggle with the depression and trauma bringing me down making me want to isolate myself and protect myself.
Life just keeps on moving… and we have to move with it even when we just wanna stand still for a moment…

Wishing her healing. Heartbreaking.

That's actually a really good analogy in my experiences with grief!
I absolutely love her and always have. I hope she heals with love laughter and support

That's a great analogy. Very similar to how I feel. Sometimes you need to wallow in it.
Nah aubrey likes seeing an entire populace slaughtered, she can kick rocks
That’s actually a really good analogy
Isn’t she a Zionist? People in Gaza lose family members everyday, I was really about to feel bad for this monster😭
Thank you for sharing Aubrey. Day by day, step by step is all we can do. Much love and support.
Aubrey Plaza I wish you the best ,🙏🏼❤️

That is a pretty good analogy. It's always there. How I interact with it can be different day to day, but it is always there.

Can you imagine turning 40 and already having experienced a stroke and the death of a spouse under your belt?
“Moving through the world…” is the most depressive answer a person could give.
I hope she is ok & finds happiness again.
times heals all
grief is the price of love

Love you Aubrey ❤
I lost my girlfriend last year and this it
Great analogy. My heart goes out to her. I lost my husband in 2021. It's as she described.
I love her ❤I wish her the best moving forward

I’m so sorry, I know what pain feels like, it will still hurt however the ability to continue to walk, gets easier
She'd already left him.
