Lost my true forever love
On the 3rd.June 2025 my darling wife of almost 50 years died in tragic circumstances. We had been together from our late teens and the shock of this incident has been devastating. I haven’t slept properly since then and still almost 9 months later find myself unable to get any rhythm back. Can anyone tell me when this will change and I can get peace again. My children and their families are very supportive and when they are around it is comforting but then they leave and you are left alone with just your thoughts. I just don’t know what to do and just sit here waiting to die, as I don’t feel there is anything left for me. Will this ever change or am I to remain like this until one day it is the case. If anyone has any advise I would be happy to hear it.
My husband of 36 years passed away in hospital unexpectedly. He was in to have an ongoing problem sorted out which I thought would be routine but it wasn’t. It has been nearly nine weeks and very painful. We are new to the area and don’t know anyone and as an elderly couple kept ourselves to ourselves. Suddenly I am left with having to deal with every day things without him. I make myself go out otherwise I will just cry. I have joined a couple of clubs to meet others but my mind is on losing my husband every second of the day. Joining the widowed collective does help me understand that I am not the only one even though it is heartbreaking to read the other stories.
I feel as though I am still in shock and so far all I think of is being with him and the sooner the better.
