Hello @Jaqui.1,

I’m part of the Online Community team and I can see that you are new to the community - I’d like to thank you for bravely starting this thread and sharing how you are feeling. 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.

  • Our Grief Guide self-help platform which has information, resources and advice to help you through your grief

  • Our Bereavement Information pages which can walk you through what you are going through.

I really hope you find the community helpful and a good source of support and I also hope you feel you can access more support should you need it.

Thank you again for sharing – please keep reaching out and know that you are not alone.

Take care,

Alex

Hello Jaqui.1
I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my wife in April and have been struggling ever since. I cry every day, often many times. I think it is an important part of the grieving process. I am also getting counselling, which gives me the opportunity to talk about my feelings - maybe that’s something you would find helpful.
As you say - you probably shouldn’t keep you emotions in.
I have found this forum very supportive, so please keep posting here in the various subjects - people here understand completely what you’re going through.
Sending you my very best wishes,
