Physiologist or Psychologist big difference

Malbě stay off Social média for a while

Grief is handled in many ways and is different for everyone. While you may not agree with others actions. Not all will agree with yours

I'm hearing you OP.
It makes me sick the way people do this. Their children are sacred but they use them as an attention grabbing hashtag.
Disgraceful really.

I agree with you, I think that some things are sacred and should be kept off social media. But this is how society creates awareness now. I don't agree with putting a child on Facebook. I have two cousins, one her daughter was stillborn and she posted all these pictures of her sleeping baby, WHY???? my other cousin had a premie and a child with a heart condition and again putting pictures up of their babies covered in tubes, and straight after a heart operation hash tagging away. It's not necessary and why are these people not concerned with strangers seeing their children on the internet?

Not everyone has money to pay a Psychologist & they need to find a way to deal with things on their own. It's possible they could be trying to raise money or awareness for whatever condition it was so that it doesn't happen to another parent. All of this you probably subconsciously know already. I would consider a visit to Psychologist yourself, you obviously have alot of unrestrained emotions about this (which is normal) but they might be able to help you work through some things.

A friend of ours lost her child (9 years old to cancer) nearly 10 years ago now. She still does birthday posts with all his photos every year and memories throughout the year. Lots of hashtags. Lots of hospital photos. I used to freak out and think another of her kids was sick, but still the same one that had passed. She has gotten on with her life but just does not want to forget that she was HIS mother too. She doesn’t want anyone to forget him. It still makes me uneasy seeing them as I never see this much info on her other kids, but she is with them all the time. I think that every time she starts to forget a little or enjoy life too much, she feels like a traitor to his memory, and overdoes all the memorabilia. I have just turned off the notifications on her posts now. I feel sad that it is still such a large part of her life after so long, but I have never lost a child so I don’t know how I would cope with it in her place.

I guess everyone grieves differently. Some people's whole lives are played out on social media, including death. It might also be their way of bringing awareness and highlighting the cause of their child's death.
