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 am so sorry you're in such pain...today was 7 weeks since my Matthew died and I feel just as you do. I'm just lost - the pain is overwhelming. I'm not in denial that he is gone, but still in complete disbelief. How can somebody who was so alive suddenly be gone in the blink of an eye. I just don't understand it..
I found the best thing for me, was routine, getting up every morning making my bed and getting dressed..having my coffee and walking even if it's just for few minutes..I talk to my husband all the time, and thank him for sharing his life with me and our three daughters and eight grandchildren.
Come here often there are some wonderful people on here, who are on the same "life" journey as you, and willing too share.
"Don't cry because it's over...smile because it happened...peace and prayers..Gail..
Talk to you doctor if you cannot get through the day due to anxiety or panic attacks. Don't let it get to a point where you feel hopeless.
Take care.

I went through the shock and other symptoms of grief and did go to grief counseling which did help to a degree, but not completely.<br>

I created an online blog. Please look at my blog and how I am handling this thing called grief. The journal and my youtube channel online blog has helped me start to express some of my thoughts and feelings that I can't talk about with anyone else. The blog whether it is video or Tumblr is filled with thoughts and quotes that are very comforting. Some are sad,sometimes I cry while blogging but very fitting for me at this time. I pick up my phone and my thoughts and memories are pour into it whenever I need to. I keep it with me at all times, if possible. I would recommend this to anyone that has experienced a loss and needs an outlet. Please feel free to look at my videos, read my blog or ask questions. I will try and respond asap.<br>
