Gedulas kartais gali labai izoliuoti. Net kai aplink jus yra žmonių, kuriems rūpite, gali būti sunku paaiškinti patirtį, kuri atrodo labai asmeniška, arba jausti, kad kiti iš tiesų supranta, ką išgyvenate. Ryšys su žmonėmis, patyrusiais panašaus pobūdžio netektį, gali suteikti priklausymo jausmą ir priminti, kad jums nereikia visko įveikti vieniems.
Paramos grupės sukuria erdvę, kurioje žmonės gali dalytis patirtimis, mintimis ir emocijomis su kitais, kurie galbūt susidūrė su panašiomis situacijomis. Vieniems gali būti naudinga tiesiog klausytis kitų; kitiems palengvėjimą ar patvirtinimo jausmą gali suteikti kalbėjimas apie savo patirtį. Taip pat galite sužinoti įvairių įveikos būdų, atrasti naujų palaikymo šaltinių arba jaustis patogiau kalbėdami temomis, kurias gali būti sunku aptarti su šeima ir draugais.
Nėra vieno būdo dalyvauti paramos grupėje. Jūs galite nuspręsti, kiek norite dalytis ir ar mieliau pirmiausia klausysitės, o tik tada kalbėsite. Kai kurios grupės susitinka gyvai, kitos vyksta internetu, ir jos gali būti organizuojamos pagal skirtingas patirtis, pavyzdžiui, netektį, mamos ar tėčio, partnerio, brolio ar sesers arba draugo praradimą, ar su liga ir vėžiu susijusį gedulą. Tinkamos jūsų patirčiai grupės radimas gali turėti didelę reikšmę.
Prisijungimas prie paramos grupės nereiškia, kad turite kalbėti apie viską, ką jaučiate, taip pat nereiškia, kad privalote stipriai tapatintis su kitų žmonių patirtimis. Kiekvieno santykis su gedulu yra skirtingas. Galite dalyvauti taip, kaip jums atrodo saugu ir patogu, ir visada galite atsitraukti, jei grupė nebejaučiasi naudinga.
Šiame skyriuje siūlomos grupės skirtos padėti jums atrasti ryšio ir tarpusavio palaikymo galimybes. Jei svarstote prisijungti prie grupės, skirkite šiek tiek laiko sužinoti, kas joje vyksta, kam ji skirta ir ar jos formatas jums tinka. Kreiptis pagalbos nėra ženklas, kad nesusitvarkote — kartais kitų žmonių buvimas šalia gali padėti gedulą išgyventi jaučiantis šiek tiek mažiau vienišiems.
