10.01.2022 Helpful tips to support others who have lost loved ones a Christmas and holiday reminder Do you know someone who has lost a loved one Maybe they have lost a mother, father, husband, wife, grandparent, partner, child, friend, neighbour or pet. Christmas can be a difficult time for someone that has lost a loved one. The stress of the holiday season paired with the special occasions and reminders can exacerbate grief and loss difficulties. It may be the presents that are not ...purchased , the table that isn’t set for someone, the Christmas card they haven’t written or received , the house they are not visiting and so on. But what can you do to help someone you care about to get through this holiday season It can begin with something as simple as just being present. Just being there for them is the biggest gift you can give them this Christmas. Some ideas could be: Acknowledge their feelings. Let them be heard and just listen. Sit with them in silence. Give them a hug or just sit beside them. Drop in for coffee. Message them to ask how they are doing. Don’t be afraid to use their loved one's name in the fear you will make them sad . Using their name doesn’t cause pain, it validates their pain and their loss. It lets them know you are thinking of them and that you are willing to sit in the uncomfortable space they are in. Remember, grief is a natural extension of love. I would love to hear stories about [say the name of the loved ones]? I'm thinking of you, I know Christmas is especially hard for you without [your loved one's name]. Reach out, a simple message to let them know you are thinking of them. I'm thinking of you How can I help? How are you doing today? Can I come to visit? Coffee and cake work well here. Be patient, social gatherings can be hard, but try and involve them where they are comfortable. Be proactive, consider practical support, the little things can really help. Cooking a meal Helping with chores Help with shopping Help decorate the Christmas tree Walking the dog Invite them to your Christmas celebrations Remember, support is different than fixing. Support provides comfort, it lets them know they are not alone. Acknowledging, recognising and allowing their grief, lightens the burden. The best present this Christmas is your presence.

08.01.2022 Hello everyone, Please check out this upcoming event "From Diagnosis to OAM: A Personal Autism Journey." Great insights, experiences and stories shared. ... https://www.facebook.com/events/660019281082953/

06.01.2022 Managing grief during Christmas Christmas can be a difficult time particularly if you have lost someone you care about. While everyone reacts differently to grief, the festive season is tough for many. However, there are things that may help. Give yourself some time out to feel sad, down or upset... It is important to acknowledge your feelings Think about the person you have lost and dedicate a special moment to them. This could be writing them a letter, revisiting a special place, doing an activity etc Share some of your memories of them with others Reach out and talk to others during difficult times Have people around you that you love Give yourself permission to enjoy the festive season Engage in exercise such as going for a walk Give yourself permission not to celebrate the festive season if you do not want to, but try not to isolate yourself Keep a regular pattern of sleep Remember that using alcohol or drugs to escape the pain of loss provides only very temporary relief Listen to music Get a massage Although some people find it comforting to have others around them and not talk about their feelings, some also benefit from sharing their thoughts and feelings. If you are finding it hard to cope with day-to-day stuff and do not want to talk to a loved one than please reach out to a trained professional. If you or someone you know needs support please do not hesitate to contact our office to make an appointment. Alternatively, you can contact Lifeline on 13 11 14, the Kids Helpline on 1800 55 1800 or the Psychiatric Regional Triage Service on 1300 363 788, all of which are available 24 hours a day.

PMCO will be open again from tomorrow and we look forward to being part of your journey this year.
