About Me
I'm starting over in many ways...you could say getting a second chance at life. I'm living one day at a time and very aware that life should be appreciated and in that process learning, recovering and growing. Remember... Happiness keeps You Sweet, Trials keep You Strong, Sorrows keeps You Human, Failures keeps You Humble, Success keeps You Glowing, But Only God keeps You Going!!!

Thanks for the hug. We all have to walk from out of our dark tunnel eventually. I had to force myself by going out and surrounding myself with people and enjoying life. Now I just think that I keep myself busy doing things and that helps a lot with the grief. Bad moments are still there but they are moments and not hours. : )

High Five
Thanks for posting on my journal. I definitely need all the encouragement. I found that I have to think this way, if not I will make my world/life dark. He is not coming back to me. Waiting to die is not the answer. I have to start living this new life and remember and cherish the man I had. Thanks, I hope this week is better than last. : )

Support Groups
Close Widows & Widowers
I lost my boyfriend in a tragic circumstance a few months ago. We lived together and although we were not married it is as if we were. He was everything to me....the loss of a partner can be unbearable. I was hoping to find others to help me on this difficult journey to survive.
Treatments
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- In the past I was a bit resistant to going to therapy. So I would meet a therapist and quickly find a reason as to why I didn't feel so comfortable. I guess you might have thought I was being too critical. It's until now I realize it's about proper chemistry and that you should feel 100% comfortable. Right now I feel like she is saving my life. Helping me find myself again and helping me heal from such traumatic loss...I'm fortunate.
