Hi everyone. I lost my partner/ex (we were on and off) of 6 years on Thursday. His family didn’t let me know, found out through social media. They’ll give me no information on what happened or when or where he was/is. He was a very heavy drinker. I’m absolutely devastated and angry with the world for taking him from me. I didn’t even have a chance to say goodbye. My heart is broken x
Hello @Kates,

I’m so sorry to hear about your partner. Most community members have sadly experienced the death of a loved one and so will understand some of what you are going through.
I’m sure someone will be along to offer their support. In the meantime, you may wish to look at these Sue Ryder resources which might be helpful.
