Wandavision through the eyes of grief
So I'm in a hotel room in upstate NY and I'm bored. So I decide to go back a rewatch Wandavision and Multiverse of Madness.
I lost my wife a little over a year ago. When I got home from the hospital I went back to bed for several hours (it was the middle of the night). When I woke up I retreated into a fantasy world much like Wanda did. I didn't kidnap a whole town like she did but I shut out reality and retreated into a sitcom world: Full House.
Full House was a bubble that I though would protect me from the pain. It was safe. No one died (that wasn't already dead before the show started). The worst sickness anybody got was Chickenpox or Tonsillitis. The problems were minor: two sisters having to share a room, a baby who needed to be sung Teddy Bear in 3-part harmony to go to sleep, macho Uncle Jesse having pink bunnies on the wall in his room. It was comfort food. As long as I was in there grief, pain, sadness, loneliness none of those things could hurt me.
I'm not saying that kidnapping and brainwashing the residents of a town in New Jersey is a healthy response to grief, but I understand her wanting to retreat into a tv sitcom world.

MoM Wanda was just Endgame Wanda with the Darkhold
Literally didn’t even reality warp in the movie. Just energy blasts, shields, and telepathy. “What mouth” isn’t coming close to her one day choosing to be completely omnipotent over a whole town for days, during which she created life and an infinity stone out of thin air by accident. Both Kamar Taj and the Illuminati headquarters could’ve fit inside the Wandavision Hex at the same time with enough leftover room that they aren’t even noticed. So when it comes to fights, Wanda’s powers seem like they declined in magnitude and scale despite the movie trying to position her as the ruler of the multiverse. This is what happens when directors aren’t able to keep up with the scales that they’re envisioning.

The quote “But what is grief if not love persevering?” has changed my perspective on my own painful grief.
TW: loss and mental health
I have really been struggling lately. I lost my mom, she’s not dead but it hurts just as much. I was put into foster care as a kid, and I guess I blocked out my grief from losing her.
I’m in college now and going through therapy where my therapist explained to me that what I’m going through is grief. I’m grieving my mom. At first I felt like I couldn’t name this as grief because she is still alive but I’ve learned that grief comes in many forms other than death. I would cry myself to sleep because I just wanted a mom so much to hold me and comfort me. The pain consumed a lot of my life school, work and personal. I believed that this pain was just there to hurt me more.
“But what is grief if not love persevering?” This grief I feel isn’t there to hurt me, it is just love that has no other place to go. This grief is my love continuing to reach for that motherly love even though it doesn’t have a place to go. My love has nowhere safe to go so it is continuing as pain.
Changing my perspective has helped me be more empathetic towards myself and healing. I thought that I should post this here because I know many others can relate in similar ways.
