Season 2
Getting back to socialising
Episode 12 – Getting back to socialising
Getting back to everyday activities can seem like an impossible task when you’re in the depths of grief.
In this week’s episode, we share our own experiences of getting back to socialising and catching up with friends, family and strangers at events or one-on-one after our parents died.
We talk about identifying as the boy/girl who’s parent has died, leaning on alcohol to get through social situations, using humour to talk about our loss and how grief and death has changed the way we socialise forever.
We also shared the advice from our wonderful DPC community on the best ways to get back out there and start doing the things you enjoy again.
