laying here alone in an empty bed with my cats trying to stay sane. Morning's are the hardest for me. Will It ever be normal again ?

I have the same question. I am so reminded of my situation first thing in the mornings and on when I go to bed.

It's hard but we must all go through this. It took me forever to find things normal again after my first heartbreak. Now I'm getting older and getting wiser, I'm learning that there's stages of grief, I try to acknowledge it and cry it out, proactively talk to friends about it and find ways to be alive in everything I do. It's a challenge, so my first order of the day is to either go here for "daily strength" or pray or talk to someone. My thoughts are with you.

Yes.

What most don't realize while they're grieving what they think they lost is that your new "normal" can be even better than the old one.

This is a transition period. We don't like these fundamental changes. They rock our boats.

Depending on how you deal and look at the situation now, that's the direction you'll go in.

Mornings are the hardest for me 2, i woke up 5:30 this morning crying hysterically because i realized he wasn't going 2b in my life anymore,. Nights are bad but not as bad as mornings, because the little time i do sleep i don't think about him, i don't hurt, until i wake up out of my sleep in a sweat

It's a horrible feeling. I'm sorry you are going through
It too. I don't have any answers but I pray every morning and trust in that.

Mornings and unstructured times like weekends and holidays are the hardest for me as well.

I can say it does get better with time. It'll be 10 months since she left me on Wednesday. You make new routines in your life. Find new things to do. Find out new things about yourself.

Dandelion is right in that your new situation can be better than the old. I've come to see my ex for who and what she really is and I know I'll be better in the long run without her.

I'm grieving the loss of ONE person, not the end of my life. (A lot of time lost with my kids but they're not lost to me). There are more chapters to my life and I'm going to be stronger and wiser in them for having gone through this.

Mornings and nights are the hatfrdt for me too I'm lucky I have three big dogs that make the bed not so lonely it's really rough getting used to a new routine Hang in there hugs
