I don't think I'll ever be comfortable with the idea of "emotion regulation" (let alone "dysregulation").

Hot take: I actually like when people bring up how they relate to my situation. I don’t assume they’re trying to steal the spotlight or one-up me. I see it as a person trying to help however they can by connecting & being vulnerable w me, as we should if we want community

They hosted a party during lockdown.

They knew it was against the rules.

They knew they couldn’t admit it.

They thought it was funny.

Then they covered it up.

The Prime Minister must hand over everything the Government knows about the parties in Downing Street to the police.

Everyone is dealing with exhaustion and unable to concentrate on basic tasks, right?

Grieving is not a linear process. You might have a few good days but then that one low day really hits you hard. Remember that this is not a set back, grief is supposed to be felt.
