4 weeks in 💔

Losing a partner
1

4 weeks without you! This is so difficult it’s beyond hard, my grief comes in waves crashing down on me, i’m utterly lost. i’ve got my children to help me and support me yet i feel so lonely, I would give anything to have my partner back :broken_heart: nobody around me understands they just say they do.

I’m so sorry for your loss. You are very early on this journey and I would like to say it gets easier but I’m 9 weeks in now and it is still very hard. I know there’s nothing I can say to make your pain go away, but you’ve done right coming on here because we all understand, we’re all going through the same desperately sad grief journey.
Unfortunately this is the price we pay for having loved someone so much, in the end someone is going to be totally heartbroken :broken_heart:
Please try and focus on the good times and cherish your memories

@beck84 No, they don’t understand unless it’s happened to them. All kinds of people try to give advice when they should keep their mouths closed. The best people are the ones who are just there keeping you company and reminding you, silently, that you are cared for.

sending peace and love your way. I believe the hardest thing is my partner not been here at home with me and also that big question where is he? we have a daughter together and she turns 2 year old on sunday, she doesn’t understand where daddy is! he was only 42 and had so much life left but unfortunately he cancer xx

I’m 7 weeks in and can’t believe how bad it is. My husband was only 52 and I’m the first of my friends to be a widow. Its true that its impossible to understand until you’re here. I feel too old to start again but too young to live like this for the rest of my life.

I’m sorry for you all. You’re all so young, I’m 71 and its hit me like a ton of bricks, like you I’m crying all the time and can’t believe he’s gone. The pain is indescribable. My home is no longer that, just an empty quiet place where he isn’t.
I dont suppose grief cares about age, but you young ones have so much life left to live.
Please all take care
Love and hugs
