I am sorry you are feeling like this. I get it, I’ve been crying a lot this week mainly when I lay awake.
Yes you are right unfortunately, we are on this ride for the rest of our lives. We need to find ways to slow it down etc.
You have to try and stop feeling guilty, easier said than done of course. None of this was our choice!
A beautiful tribute xx
Morning everyone,
it is a grey day, with mist and drizzle.
I haven’t got anything planned except washing up 
Have the best day possible, take care x
Lovely plants , a fitting tribute
Morning Everyone
Hope you have the best day you possibly can . I have a dentist appointment this morning.
Not great today. I lost my husband 8 weeks ago yesterday, and every day is a struggle but today is particularly difficult, I can’t stop crying, and I feel so alone.
So sorry for your loss. I lost my Jackie a year ago yesterday.
I miss her every day 
A friend of mine sent me this song by Willie Nelson in my early months. It helped me,
You take care
That’s a lovely song , with very meaningful words it brought tears to my eyes
So very sorry for your loss.
Sending a hug
So sorry for your loss ,

Thinking of you after reading your post. Such a short time for you.
The loneliness is the worst. Your brain cannot understand this new life you are experiencing without your soulmate.
The tears help to get rid of some of the pain you are feeling, but the emotion drains away your energy
I don’t know if you have any family or friends you can tell how bad you are feeling. Only those who have lost their soulmate can truly understand.
I lost my husband over 2 years ago. The pain never goes away you just try to live the best life you can which is a life we did not choose.
Posting here does help because we all feel the same.
Try to look after your self. Talking is helpful if you can find a bereavement group to join .
Take care and just post how you feel, especially on bad days
Teepee, sorry for your loss, its a terrible journey we are all on, reading messages of support on here really does help, you are not alone, I lost my husband 7 months ago and im so lost , lonely and scared without him, i have family but they dont know how I am, they havnt been through it, I put on a brave face its so hard, walking into the empty , quiet house that was once filled with love and laughter is terrible, I cry so many tears 
Hi Julia12,
Thank you for your lovely message.
The loneliness is the absolute worst especially the evenings and early mornings. I was with my husband 24 hours a day, 7 days a week as I was his wife and carer, so we did everything together so when he passed, it was absolutely devastating.
I cry every day, and it is just so exhausting.
I don’t have any family, only a couple of good friends, who although they are wonderful, they have their own lives, so I spend a lot of time on my own.
All I can do is move forward slowly, and take each day as it comes.
Thank you for being there xx
Hi Babycake,
I feel exactly like you at this time. I’m even crying whilst I write this.
I am so sorry you don’t have any family support.
All you can do is think of the good memories you have and take each day as it comes. Don’t try and think too far ahead. Just wake up and think about your day, don’t try and think what you will do in a week’s time.
I have done several things around my home which I didn’t think I could do, and I know this would make my husband proud and I talk to him every day.
Take care of yourself xx
Thank you RoseGarden x
Thank you Sherbet x
Teepee, i do have family support, they just dont know how im feeling still but they are supportive to me, its when your on your own and the house is so quiet its so hard, I try to keep busy but its lonely 
I have family surport,I don’t think I would have got this far without them. It’s 5 months since i suddenly lost my husband. I try to keep busy which I have found helps . It doesn’t take away the loneliness. I have recently started bereavement counselling after a 5 month wait . I am just beginning to feel the benefits from it . I also go to a bereavement cafe run by a local church. I have found that helpful as well .
Take care
