I am so exhausted over climate grief.
Yesterday I went on a gorgeous hike, and I saw tons of insects. Baby frogs, dozens of them! Orioles and pelicans. It was lovely. But even when I'm surrounded by nature, I can't help but think, "How many more generations of pelicans will there be? What about frogs? This is the first oriole I've seen in a couple of years; is it my last one?"
It's like we're living in a nightmare.
Climate grief can be incredibly draining and I have suffered it as well (I still feel it sometimes but I am mostly over it). I always suggest talking about these things with someone who is close to you like family or a friend. However, I am also aware that many people are either unaware or outright in denial so it can be hard to find someone IRL. As an online resource, I can recommend the Collapse Support Discord. They have chats for venting, weekly collapse support group calls and many other resources for people who suffer from climate grief or distress.
Here's the invite: https://discord.gg/MQzqebGW
You're a peach. Thank you for responding, and for the resource. <3
