How are you? How do I answer this question?
Do I lie and say I’m fine, I’m great, I’m doing well
or do I tell the truth and say it’s Hell, the days are too long, I don’t want to be here
and I cry much of the day. I don’t know what to say.

It is very difficult. People who are not in the same position as us often don’t know how to,approach us. They mean to be kind I am sure. My response now is “ thank you - i am much the same.

I’m going to give the same response ( Kate tr ) I don’t know what to keep saying to people, I think they think after 3weeks I’m ok .
But far from it , I question myself “should I be better than this” and my answer is no !!
It’s 3weeks since my mum’s funeral and I’m in turmoil not knowing how I am from minute to minute, hour to hour, or day to Day
Thankyou for your answer to my problem

I tend to lie and say I’m OK which at that time I may well be but later on I could very well be in tears thinking about my dad.
