The roles of a Griefline volunteer and a First Responder seem worlds apart, yet one thing connects us…a shared experience of grief & loss in the community.

Whether a police officer, firefighter, paramedic or emergency health worker, our First Responders have always shown courage and dedication to protect our communities. Their work is instrumental in keeping us safe and reducing the occurrence of grief and loss in our communities.

The recent events of deadly bushfires and the COVID-19 pandemic required those on the front line to go above and beyond…navigating the toughest of human experiences with little precedent.

So how do first responders manage when they bear witness to loss? How do they hold it together in a crisis?

“Well, sometimes, you don’t. Which is fine because you’re human. But I think it’s a real honour. I find what I do a real privilege,” says Margot, a palliative care nurse in Victoria.

It’s a privilege that presents Margot with all manner of grief, fear and exhaustion on a daily basis but with comradery, professionalism and a little secret, Margot feels like she can ‘get through’ almost anything.

Discover Margot’s secret in her inspiring story featured on the Griefline Resource Hub alongside a raft of informative articles and self-care strategies for anyone going through their own form of grief, loss, loneliness and isolation. With Griefline you are never alone.

Victoria is open for business once again 🙏

The experience of lockdowns has affected every Victorian differently, and for some the transition out of lockdown can be just as challenging.

But you don’t have to face it alone.
There are many resources available for those in need of support.

Griefline's new online resource hub provides a list of specialised services that can help you to find professional help, financial support or a community group to join. We continue to offer nation-wide services for those struggling with feelings of grief, loss, loneliness and isolation.

Griefline volunteer telephone counsellors are available from 6am to midnight, 365 days a year and our online forums are accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

So whether you, or someone you know is experiencing difficulty, never hesitate to ask for help.

Change brings discomfort.

The coronavirus pandemic has forced us all to move from the familiarity of the past to the discomfort of an uncertain future.

So how do we adjust to this new reality? According to Julia Samuels (UKCP, BACP Acc. Psychotherapist) we need to take small steps.
The first step is to find a way to express our experience because when we match our words to our feelings it triggers a release and openness to change.

The new Griefline forum dedicated to COVID-19 is a safe and anonymous space to express in words how the uncertainty of the pandemic has compounded your experience of grief, loss, isolation and loneliness. Take the first step towards adjustment to the new COVID-normal by sharing your experience with our online community today.

Dear broken-hearted,

This is a message of unconditional care and understanding for the grief, loss and loneliness you might be experiencing this Valentine's Day.

Truly,

Your friends at Griefline.

Valentine's Day can trigger feelings of grief and loss for many single Australians. Some of us are mourning a deceased partner, some are in anguish over the breakdown of an intimate relationship, while others are grieving for the loving partner they've never had.

If Valentine's Day is leaving you feeling distressed, lonely or isolated, take heart and reach out to Griefline. We've been offering care and support to the heavy-hearted for over 32 years.

Subscribe to one of our new online forums where a caring, supportive and helpful community will welcome you with open arms https://griefline.org.au/forums/

Or call our Helpline 1300 845 745
