Disturbing thoughts

I wonder if anyone has the same thoughts. I am so alone after losing my husband of 57 years 4 weeks ago. I do not want to be here anymore. I am binning things out of the house in preparation for me going. Have been doing that for the last year while I was caring for my husband. Although he was ill we were managing. His sudden heart attack shook the life out of me. I am glad he is out of pain but my life is now pointless.

I understand. I hit the 6 month mark on 1st August. I’ve felt like you many times and I also have a plan. But the next day is usually a bit better somehow and I cannot believe that I felt that way. Until it hits me again. No idea how I will feel from one day to the next but I seem to keep going.

It is very very early days for you, it is completely normal to feel the despair horror emptiness and pointlessness that you are feeling. All of us on here have been there some of us are there.
It really does get easier, but sadly the path you are on now does hurt terribly, you must let yourself feel the pain of your grief, you need to weep and keen and accept the awful hurt and despair you are feeling. Then you will start to heal, grief is a lonely and very painful road but you will build your life around it, slowly healing and learning ways to live with your grief.
There are so many helpful posts on here which will make you realise you are not alone you are supported on here and you will see whatever you are feeling is normal.
Keep posting on here, keep reading, let your tears fall and you will start to heal, bit by bit it will happen. You are not alone. X
