The Mary Mac Show | Preparing for the Holidays I

The Mary Mac Show Podcast

In this week’s episode, we discuss how to prepare yourself as we encounter the year-end holidays.

No matter which ones you celebrate, Hanukkah, Christmas, New Years, or many others after a loved one has died, they just don’t feel the same.

If it’s the first holiday season since you have been bereaved, or it’s a few more, trying to feel happy and enjoying the seasons as you did in the past, can be an especially difficult task.

The main thing you need to know is that you don’t have to do all you’ve done in the past.

You can decide on a different path. You can curtail your events and celebrations this year and there is nothing wrong with doing that.

Your emotional state is different now and you must be sensitive to that and treat yourself with more care.

So listen in to Episode 210 and please be kind to yourself as we move into this season.

Or you can also listen into the audio only through youtube:

And remember to pick up my ebook Holiday Grief: How To Cope With Stress, Anxiety and Depression After a Loved One’s Death through Amazon Kindle.

The Mary Mac Show | Enough Fentanyl to KILL EVERY AMERICAN!

#fentanyl #death #onepillcankill

In Episode 190, I speak about the dangers of illegal fentanyl which can take a loved one’s life with one dose.

The days of experimenting with drugs are over. People who are addicted think they are getting their regular supply but even they don’t know how lethal one dose of cocaine, heroin, meth or other drug can be now.

And young people who are looking for a quick high, perhaps something to deal with their emotional pain, have no idea that this drug is laced in pills, even sometimes an illegal fentanyl pill that is 100% fentanyl.

It takes so little to kill you and your family members. And young people are vulnerable.

They just don’t know what they are getting involved with.

They may be out with friends at a party and someone offers them a laced pill or joint or line of coke.

And the effects are deadly.

There is no recovering from this unless someone has narcan available.

It only takes this minute amount of illegal fentanyl to kill you. Just look at that. Only that little amount!

So I encourage everyone to become aware of this epidemic killing our children and grandchildren.

Learn how to teach your children, grandchildren and other loved ones before it’s too late.

Watch the video version below. Please subscribe, like and comment and share this episode with others who may benefit from its knowledge.

I realize it’s hard to have these conversations because you’re uncomfortable. And you think it might lead to them using the drugs.

But please understand the if you forgo having these conversations from kindergarten, you run the risk of their looking for relief from dealers on social media, or agree to take it from a friend.

Rainbow Fentanyl that looks like candy attract our youngest.

Be aware! Be educated. Your young ones’ lives are on the line.

There are too many families who are now grieving the loss of their children. Help yourself to not be one of them.

Wishing you much strength! And don’t wait. Have those conversations now!

xoxo
