Hi Daria, I want to welcome you to this wonderful group of loving but grieving people. Here, you can express your feelings and write about whatever you're going through to people who really get it. This is the hardest journey of all of our lives, and it helps so much to have each other as we each struggle without the love of our life. So post when you want, and read often. I know this site was a real education for me - I just don't know how I would have made it without all these loving caring people to help and listen. God bless you and comfort you ~ Scott

Daria, welcome to a site I have found to be a lifeline. I am so very sorry for your loss. It certainly is a very painful journey with tons of ups and downs and often without warning. The best thing I ever did was join these wonderful people. They are compassionate, caring and truly understand what we are all going through. They "get it". I find wonderful suggestions on dealing with everything I am going through. It's so good to know I'm not crazy, but "normal". Losing my soulmate has been the most traumatic, agonizing, life changing event I have ever experienced. Coming here helps me to understand the emotions I am having. And reading posts from those further in this journey gives me so much hope that I too will find my way eventually. Please come here as often as you like or want. You will find great support, and sometimes even some humor. None of us wants to be here, but I need to be here. Hugs and Love, Michele

I am so sorry for your loss Daria. We are all struggling with grief here and some are farther along than others although we all grieve differently and at our own times.
I am at just over nine months since my beautiful wife died and this group has been so helpful in my journey and I can't even tell you how grateful I am to have them. Just know that you are not alone and come here as often as you need to, we will be here. ~Pete

Daria, I'm so sorry that you had to join us. Just think, a group that no one really wants to join!

I never in my wildest imaginings ever thought that I would be a grieving widow! NEVER! I NEVER wanted to be one of those sad, lost souls!

Well, here I am. I was so reluctant to find a group.....I went to one, in person, and I didn't feel comfortable and couldn't wait for it to be over so I could escape.

Then I couldn't stop crying and needed so much to talk to someone else who was like minded, who would understand and not admonish me with a tsk, tsk, get over it!!!!

I found this group. Some have gone, some more come in, some come back, some stay on to help new arrivals and ALL are caring, giving, sharing and most importantly non-judgmental of each other!

Share what you're feeling in the safety of knowing that we ALL understand, care and know exactly where you're coming from.

Warmly,
Roz

Hi My husband died two days before yours. It's a good resource coming on this site. It help me be positive in a horrible situation that we all find ourselves in. I recently found out the cause of death of my husband it was unknown until thurs exactly 3 months that he was gone. He accidently overdosed. He was so depressed I believe he took himself out. I'm completely devistated like i'm starting the grieving process over again. I found journaling helps. we are in this new journey together. hugs, Donna
