So does anyone have any experience in animal loss support? Thinking about looking into it given today. I saw a therapist for 3 months over my mom's passing and she helped me a bunch. (hexbear.net)

Pretty sure the counseling center I get my meds filled at offers therapy too and I have medicaid (for now, until it gets cut under Trump).

Definitely can't hurt. This is one of those things therapy is good for (versus stuff that's the consequence of capitalism).

Also, depending on your disposition, adopting a new companion animal can ease the pain. It obviously can never replace the void of your lost animal, but it allows you to forget and keep youe mind off it.

Thanks but I think it's going to be a while until I adopt a new cat. rn I just want to process this and work through the trauma.
