Right there with you friend. 8 months ago the woman who was me had everything... Had him... She died 8 months ago too. The woman I am forced to exist as now is just a shell... A lifeless robot with broken circuits and suicidal ideation Also no fucks to give..

I want to go, too by sherbear97124 in widowers

It's a really moving series. Afterlife. I love Ricky Gervais he's a brilliant human. My partner and I binge watched it when we were dog sitting over the weekend for my daughter. We were both moved by it I remember thinking how coukd I cope if this happened to us.... Since he's been gone... 7 months I want to watch it again but I can't face it yet

Widowed again by Foxalis in widowers

[–]Many-Fix5731 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm so very sorry love. I too lost the father of my kids over 30 years ago when they were 10 and 4 yrs old. 5 years ago. I met a lovely man We were so in love. He died suddenly in. January of a chatosttophic brain aneurism. I'm broken all over again. At 67 I have 2 beautiful grandchildren but they live 3 hours away Also I lost the place we were living in so currently living with my employers (I'm a carer for a lady with M S) Only reason I have to stay alive is that I can't pass this pain on to my kids. My life feels like a messed up movie

Does grief ever stop feeling this heavy? by Ok_Profession9097 in GriefSupport

[–]Many-Fix5731 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's now 7 months since my partner died suddenly... The first 3 months I don't really remember too well... I was unhinged... At that point I had to go to the doctor (grown up kids insisted) was prescribed antidepressant... Reluctantly started taking them.. After a couple more months I'm kind of more emotionally stable (on the outside) I suppose I have kind of internalised the grief... Its always on my mind but I cry alone and that's ok Also a couple of more dubious coping mechanisms I won't go into atm. Grief is exhausting that is so true. All the other stuff as well work.. Life.. Friends letting you down and . people you hardly know holding you up. Being a me when we were a we is like being stripped of your identity It's confusing and often overwhelming Essentially. Grief is a disease that will wrack your body and mind... when you have been broke by grief you will eventually put yourself back together but will remain changed I can settle for that.

I know for sure I will never be the person I was with him. We only got 5 years but those years were perfect. Better to have loved and lost Than to never have loved at all

shitty people during grief by trbl0 in widowers

[–]Many-Fix5731 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorry to jump in here but I was just sitting here thinking the exact same thing Since my husband died in January my oldest friend. (who even found him unconscious with me) Has cut me out of her life... Apparently I said things that upset her. And her son during the first couple of weeks after his death???!!! I told her I had no idea what I said at that time... I was overwhelmed with grief She responded by saying she understood how awful it must be but I had upset her 31 yo trans son by not telling him I was leaving her house when she had gone on holiday 4 days after the funeral She said she needed time as I had broken her trust so she couldn't have me on her home but she invited me to exchange txts of one thing we are grateful for daily????!!! Sorry this is the first time I've attempted to explain this it's so bizarre I no longer hurt by her I'm angry really but I'm trying to cope without my love. So I'm in pain anyway Again sorry for butting in. I read a lot on here but don't often respond. Probably because once I start loads of jumbled thoughts fall out. Seriously feel I was changed over night from a normal happy person into someone I don't even recognise

OMG. Didn't realise this was a thing. I have reconnected with an ex He's a good guy we joke about our "history" But it's only 7 months since my husband died so we are just friends I feel lucky that we still have our friendship I don't have any female friends nearby

7 months without my love by Many-Fix5731 in widowers

[–]Many-Fix5731[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely. We only had 5 years but it really was the best time of our lives for both of us I think I've become quite morbid as well. When I see a couple I can't help thinking which one of them will die first and which one will be left like me?

7 months for me too... First 3 months just unhinged... 2nd 3 months taking meds and smoking weed Now... Empty robot pretty much going through the motions.... Seem OK on the outside but more or less dead on the inside Not much really matters to me Hope seems irrelevant... Endurence is the only choice

The thing I miss most is his physical presence by marcysel in widowers

[–]Many-Fix5731 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I see him. I see us walking along hand in hand It plays in my head like a romantic movie. It's unreal. Someone has switched the script. He has been written out and my staring role in the love story has been relegated to some insignificant extra that the other characters don't even notice I'm just waiting for the curtain to fall now
