Any one lose a family member or someone close to them and use wrestling as a coping mechanism?

I bet this goes to Wrest...anyway I'll add my two cents.
I used wrestling as therapy indeed....not just for loss, but for the fact that in well, every level of school, my social life sucked. My favorite shows were what I looked forward to mot of all, usually .
You may say I could expand things to ALL TV being like that for me!

Not as therapy but through the local indies I have forced myself to get out and be social. Pre 2010 I might get out 2 times a month tops and that was going with her to eat then maybe see a film.
Now most months I hit 3 shows somethngs 5 or more. And through the shows met a pile of friends in the area.
Helll it was cause of a local indie show in 2010 that myself and another poster here learned we lived in the same general area. Hope to see ya at the Jan 27th show in town. King Rob Love is returning and I got at least 40 Burger King Crowns to pass out.

My father ended up hospitalized the day Miz and Morrison won the tag titles in November 2007. He passed on the next year, and I still think Mizorrison was a big part of what held me together through those months.

I’ve went through periods where I didn’t want to live anymore but it is what it is. |

Yeah, I can’t even imagine the pain you’ve been through and continue to go through but I hope that when you do feel that way you have someone to talk to. I know it sounds like the ultimate cliche but make sure you reach out when you’re feeling that way. Suffering alone never leads to anything but more pain. |

Don't know if I'd consider it therapy, but when I watch wrestling these days it makes me think of some deceased folks in my life. That's one of the main reasons I bother to watch these days, and it's mostly focused on stuff from when they were alive.

Back in my younger days I used to watch wrestling to cheer myself up due to the bullying I used to get in school.

Yes. It is one of the only things that makes me want to belong and feel included... and succeeds in doing that.

My mother died in March 2022. Few days before my birthday (the 28).
I was already excited for Cody returning to WWE, but I can’t stress how amazing that WrestleMania was for me. I needed it. It really picked me up.
One of my childhood best friends got me into wrestling in my formidable years. He passed away while we were both in college, so, wrestlings always this happy place for me.
