I’m going to leave the group. Thank you for being supportive. I face the funeral next week and my heads not in the right place. I’m trying to be supportive to others but I think I’ve made it worse for them. Good luck to everyone on this journey x
Aw … have you … surely not 
Im sure you cant make things any worse for people here! I sometimes worry about how to word things in the most supportive manner but thats because im hyper critical of myself. Theres nothing to stop you continuing to read others posts as a source of support and to post how you’re feeling. Dont be too harsh on yourself! We’re all human - even if you have posted something that someones got upset by, none of us are perfect, we learn from those moments 
I’ve upset someone trying to give positive advice. I understand they are not in a place to receive it and I’m not sure why l said it because I don’t feel brave either.
I’m frightened to be honest. It’s been 1 month, I wait for an inquest and l have the funeral 1 week tomorrow which l’m sorting. I just don’t want to be here x

Bear in mind lots of people using this site are likely to be in a heightened emotional state so may get upset more easily, not because of what youve said but because of their entire situation. Whilst what you said may not have been the right thing for that person right now, how many posts have you read on here about friends /family who dont know the right thing to say? Its normal! As long as youre following any site rules and not posting anything offensive! Plus who knows, there could be someone else reading your post for whom that advice is exactly the RIGHT thing they need to hear. everyone is on a different journey. You dont have to post for now if youre heads all over the place, just dip in and read some posts if it help you. As long as you are getting support from somewhere, thats the most important thing especially if you have funeral and inquest coming up. Take care
