Weekend Grief

Evenings and weekends are tough in grief.
It’s often when you spent the most time with your loved one.
You went on day trips or weekends away.
You caught up on shows and ate a meal together.
Evenings were spent talking about how good or bad your day went.
Weekends meant you could cuddle up longer and have more intimate times.
Weekend grief is a real thing.
Not looking forward to it is normal because the time you would have spent with them has gone.

The biggest mistake we make in life is thinking we have time.

This is the same for me. Evenings when the kids go to bed and the weekends are just the worst and I’m only 5 weeks in. I just don’t know how to sit on my own every night. Like what am I ment to do x

I’m so sorry for the recent loss of your husband. I do feel for you.
It’s been just over 4 years since I lost my partner.
The loneliness, heartache and pain still hurt as bad as day one.
Time certainly isn’t a healer.
Stay strong x

You are so right
It’s when you want to share what’s happened in your day
Yes you can tell your friends and family but it’s not the same
I find I try and keep myself busy so I don’t have time to grieve
But when I have a long time off work I go into a dark place ( I can’t help it)
Sometimes I feel what’s the point of life without the one you loved more than life itself
It’s just because you have loved the person so much that you have loss
Sometimes I wonder would it had been better not have loved him
Then I think of all the happy memories I have made with him
It’s so hard

Grief is like living two lives.
One is where you pretend everything is alright and the other is where your heart secretly screams in pain.
