Sorry for your devastating loss. It’s early days for you. I lost my husband 12 months ago. I have texted griefchat and they suggested I write a journal of our memories. Just because our loved ones have gone does not mean we cannot hold a connection with them. I feel this helps me to stay close to my H. I feel less lonely. This forum also helps as you can say exactly how you feel to people who understand as they are also going through grief. I have come to realise that it is a process that we have to go through at our own pace. Live hour by hour to start. Just try to get through each day. I felt I was on the outside looking in wandering around in a fog. The reality kicks in later and all the emotions. Keep texting Sending hugs x

I’m so sorry to hear about your loss although you say very little, sometimes the briefest messages hold the greatest pain. Do continue to reach out on here and let us know a little more about your situation if you feel able.
Do look at the counselling service we offer, or at the Samaritans who you can contact night and day. Call 116123.
