I mean is that a good way of healing and mourning a person? I mean I know each person mourns differently a lost relaive or love one, but doing it on social media? Is it smart?
I have former classmate from high school who lost her husband like more than 10 years ago, maybe 12 years ago and each death anniversary since he died, she post photos and insipirational messages about him on both her 2 social media accounts. Shortly after he died or maybe some months after, due to that emotional state she was in and also beause he left a small daughter who now is 17 years old, she started to drink and drink alone, she went to therapy too for some time afterwards.
Anyway she now is much better of course after all these years but still drinks now but more in a social setting because she likes to drink socially in gatherings. But each year each year since he died she post things on social media remembering her husband with old photos of them togehter or when they got married, etc.
Is that a way to heal? I mean of course he will never be forgotten but do you think she still in a morung phase after so long? I mean each person is different and heal differently, but I dont know if by doing what she does is a good way to move on. Or if she wants to remember him each year, not necessarily has to be posting on a public social media things and photos, do it in private with her daughter or familyh, not everyone has to know she had been a widower for like 12 years now as people who know her, already know that she is a widow anyway, for her it be sadder, in my opinion to keep doing publickly what she can keep in private. She never re-marry again after her husband died cause she thinks she won't be able to handle anotehr marriage, her husband was and still is and will be the love of her life, she does not grasp the idea of being with another man again. She is 50 now and lives with her daughter of course..
