I’m the same. 17th April she died in my arms. Keep expecting her to be home soon. They say you learn to cope better in time but I hate this new existence. People on here are very kind and do understand. it’s helping me and hopefully can help you.

So sorry for your loss. I also lost my partner in April. It still doesn’t feel real and I still sit by the door waiting for him to walk through….
Just have to take each day as it comes unfortunately and ride the waves of the horrific grief.
Have you reached out to your GP or any sort of counselling charities?

@JJ23 you’re in the right place for people knowing exactly how you feel.
The loneliness and missing them is the hardest part. The rawness of grief changes and the tears dry up but the reality of the loss gets more exposed.
I lost my partner unexpectedly in January and I function and even have good days but there are the other days where I let the grief in and consume me. Then I brush myself off and start again. Focusing on just today helps, tomorrow’s are not guaranteed.
I miss him though, every second of every day. That’s consistent.
Keep chatting on here.

@JJ23 sorry for your loss. My husband passed away on 2nd April this year from prostate cancer. I would say I’m coping slightly better than I was in the early days. I too find the loneliness and the empty house the hardest. This forum has helped me lots. Always someone here when you need to chat. Take care.

I lost my husband 6/4/23 to prostrate cancer it’s the loneliness and quietness I miss him so much some days the tears are there all day. Today I’ve had the grandchildren but they just want to play on their games. I’m so lost my heart is broken. I can understand how people can die of a broken heart.

So so sorry for your loss
I lost my husband suddenly five weeks ago today after an accident at home.
The funeral was a few days ago but I still can’t process that he has gone.
It is the evenings and early mornings that I find are the worse.
Adjusting to being alone just seems a massive mountain to climb right now. I guess it’s still hour by hour.
