Cancer Survivors Network

We all handle and process grief in different ways. And then some of us are more of a 'people person' than others.
Personally, I would probably never share with 'real people' (so to speak) the way I do here on these boards and in the chat room. In fact, there is no one in my life, even other cancer survivors, who I get so 'real' with as I do my friends here. I did attend a general crisis support group at one time which was made up of women from my church, all of whom were already close friends. I considered it more of a social outlet than a system for support.
But others will testify that 'face to face' support is the best way to go. I think it wouldn't hurt to check into what is available in your area and even give a group or two a try if you feel so inclined. After all, there is no life-time membership required and if you don't 'connect' after a few meetings, no harm done.
God bless.
