    • About Me

      I am a 62 yr. old woman, living in Mississippi. I am a retired cosmetologist, mother and grandmother.I lost my husband of 32 years in December of 2005. Not one day goes by that I don't think of him. After three long years of lonliness I met the man that I now share my life with. I am happy again and want everyone to know that there is still hope and lots of life to live, if you let yourself live it...

      I lost my husband of 32 years in Dec. of 2005 to cancer of the esophagus. During this time frame my 30 year old daughter got involved in drugs and left her family.This has been the worse year of my life and I do not think I will ever get over it.I need to talk with people who know how I feel.I dont know how to live without him and his love in my life.I dont know who I am any more.I just feel lost and miss him so much.I hope this group can help me as I am so unhappy. jmk1973

      Treatments

      Zoloft Somewhat Helpful
      It seems to take the edge off and make me able to function somewhat better.
      Xanax Working / Worked
      It definately works to calm panic attacks and anxiety.
    • Close Bereavement
      Type: Loss of a Partner/Spouse

      Read my story on the widow and widowers site.

      Treatments

      Crying Too Soon to Tell
      don't know if it helps or not.
      Grief Counseling Somewhat Helpful
      went through grief counciling at the hospise where my husband died. It was more educational than one on one. Taught me about stages of grief
      Keeping Busy Working / Worked
      I find that the busier I stay the bettger off I am.
      Lexapro Not Working
      Tried it, but was more depressed on it than off of it. Took myself off of it...
      Music Working / Worked
      music soothes the soul
      Prayer Working / Worked
      I have always turned to God in prayer for all things. It keeps me grounded in my faith.
      Xanax Working / Worked
      It definately works to calm panic attacks and anxiety
      Zoloft Working / Worked
      Helpful in the beginning. Stopped working after 2 years.
