This is a great TED talk about post-traumatic growth and recovery. I think many of you will find it helpful:

Thanks for posting this. I found it very insightful and am going to check her site out. It also changed my negative view of my son's video game interests! Maybe he is facilitating his own healing and I should play with him instead of fighting it :) Take care, Anita

I am glad my husband is dead. He was not there for me in my hour of need.

I think the admin of this web page is genuinely working hard for
his web site, since here every information is quality based data.

I'm a widow who's also a gamer whose husband was also a long-time gamer. Spending quality time with him and on our own while gaming, gave us opportunity to share experiences and stories as a result in enriching our own lives. You know what I regret however is that I can't play with him anymore. I think I've only had one dream so far where we were playing together since his passing. It was also one of the games featured in the TedTalk that has been now since shut down: "City of Heroes/City of Villains". In Lord of the Rings Online, another game where we used to play together, my guild is my family and they've been extremely supportive for me since his passing even though they mostly live in the country next door to me. It's so heart-breaking to visit regions we quested together where memories reside. Hopefully, though when it's not so painful. I can play those missions again with another character with fondness in the future.
Thanks for reading.
