Struggling to move into new house

My husband died suddenly a year ago. I moved in with my daughter as couldn’t face living in the house. I sold the house and have bought a new one 4 doors from my daughter. I completed 1 March and still haven’t moved in. I tried to stay a night (my daughter was with me) and I had a panic attack. There’s a barrier stopping me. I’m trying counselling and hypnotherapy- but what if I can’t do it!

You might have tried this already.

Have you tried being there during there just during the daytime.
. Gradually increasing the time you spend there during the day so that you spend the day and the evenings there?

Also have you been able to make it feel as you want it.

This is very easy for me to suggest but I am not in your situation.
So this could all be useless ideas.

Thank you for your messages. My husband died in tragic circumstances. We went away for a long weekend to Spain. He went swimming in the sea and drowned. He was a good swimmer but had a heart attack. It has been VERY difficult.

Take each hour at a time. Go back to your gp and beg if need be for an urgent appointment. Is there a bereavement support group you can go to? Sending a hug
