I seem to be in a bit of a routine recently that I’ll wake up around 4am to 5am and start having mini panic attacks about the future. I wake up and just immediately know how stressful everything is especially about my financial situation.
Not really sure how to break free of this. I can’t magically change things like money. I’m doing all I can but it isn’t enough to stop the worrying.
Jembella,
Financial concerns are always a concern following loss of a partner all I can say is when the time is right just cancel things you don’t need I cancelled sky , changed my phone and energy providers search for the best deals takes time bus is worthwhile I saved over 140 per month.
Additionally look an the bereavement support from the DWP see if they can help particularly if your loved one was not at retirement age.
It wasn’t a partner but my stepdad. Currently things are ok. He never got his pension because he died at 64. 4 years ago.
