numb the pain

Losing a partner
1

I lost my wife of only 2.4 years into our marriage from lung cancer and brain cancer. lost her in May I had her children come into our house and stole everything that was there even to the outdoor pavers. I payed for it all and now don’t only have my wife but my home and bed . The laws in this country are so screwed up that I’ve gave up . In doing that I’ve slipped bk in to some extra drug use to try to forget but nothing helps long story to how much I love her. Every day since I lost her I haven’t cried unless the extra stuff. … bad thing is she would beat the hell out of me if I’d even though of that back then .lol So either walk around looking crazy f@#3 up or a crying all day Every

Hello Grivinghusband69,

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 wife, and how difficult things are for you right now. 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, but I wanted to share a few Sue Ryder resources with you that might be helpful.

I’m really sorry to hear you are struggling with drug use. The NHS can offer you support and help, there is information at: Drug addiction: getting help - NHS

ADFAM also has a list of support services at the bottom of this page at Finding support - Adfam

Turning Point also offers support, including Peer Mentoring, to people who are having drug or alcohol misuse problems.

We know that grief can be so painful to cope with. But it’s important that you reach out for support with this; you matter and you don’t have to do this alone.

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, Rhi

@Grivinghusband69 you have been dealt a raw deal. Please don’t let drugs ruin your life, go to see your doctor and get some professional help. Your wife’s family have really overstepped the mark with their behaviour

@Grivinghusband69 your wife’s family should be totally ashamed of themselves. That’s disgusting behaviour :pensive:
