It’s four months since the death of my husband… but I can’t stop crying at everything. I have been doing quite well but all I seem to do I want to torture myself x

I feel exactly the same. It is 8 weeks today since I lost Richard. I am sad, angry and feel cheated. I have experienced grief before. This is on another level. The pain and ache of losing him is unbearable.
Morning both, I am 5 months into this unwanted journey. I am still trying to work out what my new normal is. It’s so hard to start rebuilding when half the bricks are missing, Derek was my soulmate, we did simply everything together and losing him has been the hardest thing, by a mile, I have ever had to deal with. I try to keep very busy when I am on my own. I avoid things that I know will upset me such as certain music or TV or even shops. You need to be patient with yourselves, be kind to yourselves, we can not bypass this journey we must endure it. I am joining a face to face support group this month which may help. I also stay a few days at a time with various family members quite regularly, it helps to bring conversation between my daughter and I when I return and somehow it helps give me strength for those next steps. I am so sorry for your losses and wish you both well, sending hugs … Jo
