Widows & Widowers Support Group
This community is dedicated to those who have lost a husband, wife, or partner. Anything is open for discussion here, with the hope that we can focus on grief, bereavement, life after loss, and continuing on after a great loss.
I lost my wife and soulmate 5 days ago. I have lost my reason to do anything. The funny things that happen every day don't matter anymore. The news events that we would watch on tv and talk about are meaningless. I don't have a reason to get out of bed. Sometimes I just pray for God to take me now. I am clueless how I will be able to carry on now. I have wonderful children who try to help me, but I feel as though I am numb. I am hoping that writing this post will help me somehow, but I doubt it. This was not the way it was suppose to happen. Ialway thought I would be the first to go and she was much stronger than me and would be able to deal with it. I have very little hope for the future.
Please know that in time you will begin to feel better even though it doesn't seem so right now. Try to take care of yourself. if possible go to a bereavement group. Everyone here has had a loss. They understand exactly what you are going through and they care. You are not alone. My thoughts are with you for strength and Peace. Love and Hugs, Dolores
