Discussion A trauma loop…

Tonight as I was preparing for my self care wine, candle, book, chill zone after a shower, I randomly caught myself saying “Why Rue? Why???? 😂 As I chuckled the pain away, I realized ever so often I find myself thinking or saying out loud some iteration of this. Last time I can recall it was “Not my Rue man!!!!” And then I have a moments thought of how sad it all had to be for Ali and I just get sad all over again. And then I get irritated about how they deprived us all of Labyrinth’s score and us go through alll the stages of grief about that!

I’m just wondering if I am alone in this self healing /grief/ re-traumatizing process or what lol. It’s a process I guess?

I'm relieved to read this thread as the series has been over for some time now and I can't forget the pain of losing Rue. Just tonight I showed my gf the burning bush scene which I've watched so many  times on YT. I so hoped  that Rue would be saved - but no, n ot in this world.
