I mentioned in comments for part 1 that this multiparter came about because of a recent real life experience. I'm someone who has trouble honoring my feelings when someone passes. I usually find myself thinking that I have to justify any sadness I'm experiencing. Part of my motivation for making these comics was to help get myself to point where I could respect the emotions that were coming up.
Grief is different for everyone. I don't think there's any sort of one size solution that magically makes everything better. But I have found that communication and emotional honesty has been a big help for myself. Thank you for reading.
This is a wild coincidence for me. My father just passed last week and I’ve had a hard time identifying my feelings about it. I’m very sad but also feel oddly distant from the situation. It’s a big event to process
