@A.Gittens I feel for you. What you are feeling is completely natural, but I know that doesn’t make it any easier to bear. You’ve had so much on your plate recently, it’s no wonder you are grieving so much. Do you have anyone at all in your life who can understand and sit with you without trying to ‘fix’ your problems? I can’t offer much concrete help, but just know that I’m thinking of you and sending you virtual strength. I think all you can do at the moment is take each day as it comes and not try to think too much into the future. Writing it down might help, as it helps to break up the issues into smaller parts, and helps you see things a bit more clearly - that worked for me, it may or may not work for you. Keep coming here, it’s a very supportive community.
Thank you I’m going to try writing it down and see if it helps
