#MentalHealthAwarenessWeek.
ALT Text reads: How you might feel if you're living with a terminal illness. - I'm anxious about all the things I have to get done - I feel afraid about the future - I feel like I'm going through this all on my own - I'm sad knowing that I won't be around in the future - I'm hurt that I'm not able to join in - I feel guilty that people may have to look after me

There are no rules, just our own personal grief 🧡 We agree.
We are unique, and our grief is too.

👋 Hey Barbie, we think you’re fabulous for talking so openly about dying matters.
But not all of us will have your fearless spirit when it comes to thinking about our own death.
🧵 This Dying Matters Awareness Week - #DMAW2024, here’s a handy thread of things to consider.

The way we talk about dying matters - but what matters most is kindness, not the words we use.
Listen to some experts - dying people and their beloveds.
Also calming wisdom from @DrLucyPain
Thanks, @dyingmatters.
