It been 16months now when i lost my solemate.I feel worse now than at the time he passed away. The feeling of emptiness and loneliness is overwhelming. I keep myself busy and started a small knitting business in our local market but hes not there when i come home so there’s no one to tell how my days been.Its just overwhelming. Family are good but it doesn’t fill that gap.Any advice would be very helpful i just dont know what to do.
Thanks for listening.

Hi Mandy,
I can empathise with you,people say get out more,find a new hobby,
What they can’t resolve is stepping over the house threshold,
Closing the door and finding your all alone,
This I find the most difficult.
Hope your knitting business helps.

I know how you feel, I find coming home to an empty house one of the most difficult things but I’ve found that over the weeks I’ve stopped crying the minute I open the door so I’m counting that as progress. I still find myself forgetting that I’m on my own though, I turn round expecting to see him and when things happen I forget that he’s not here to tell. Unfortunately I have no advice to give except to say be kind to yourself, go with your feelings and one day it won’t hurt so sharply. xx
