A good support for grief

I have been using this app for a number of years, starting shortly after my daughter died. It seems much more personal than some of the large on line groups. I connected with another mom who had lost her daughter and and a grandmother who had lost her grandson. We touch base almost everyday to support each other. They have become friends even though we’ve never met. A tremendous support on those dark days! The app does require a bit of picking and choosing but it’s all one on one which I like. The developers are very responsive to any report of inappropriate messages. It’s a safe space to share your grief.

Doesn’t work on iPhone

I tried to use this app but it wouldn’t allow me to go past a certain point because the submit button was underneath the keyboard. It wouldn’t let me submit when it required an answer to their question to move forward.

Outraged

My account got terminated and I did nothing wrong you can’t or won’t say what it is Iv ment to of done or said because I did absolutely nothing wrong. I do not recommend this app to anyone you get accused of disgusting things while your grieving. STAY CLEAR

A disappointment

This idea of this app is great. However it’s being misused as a means for dating pickups for no-gooders. For someone who was looking for real support this was a huge downer and left me feeling more empty than had I never used the app at all. A disclaimer or maybe a banner warning all users that genuine users come here to help or to seek help from others experiencing the pain of recovery from the loss of someone they cared about would improve this app. It may not keep all selfish people away but it could encourage real heart to heart connections.

Needed a place

I was suspended for what they say was incomplete profile. Even though I was active in the community and made genuine connections with others grieving. Never mind the men who treated the site like it was tinder or the multi level marketing scams that constantly messaged. Pretty sad.
