watch this nakey jakey video and have a little laugh/cry

the shitty thing is, as with all grief, it mostly just takes time. there's good advice in this thread that you should definitely take, but sometimes you're not gonna feel like going out or doing a new hobby or meeting new people, and that's ok too. it's ok to let yourself feel like shit as well, that's part of getting through it.

so yeah, pick up a new hobby, start exercising, put yourself out there for sure. but also, if you need to take a night to kill a pizza by yourself while watching a sad movie that's totally normal. you just gotta grieve, it looks different for everyone
