AM I THE ONLY ONE?

Am I the only one who is experiencing physical symptoms after the death of a loved one?I am experiencing an irregular heartbeat after the death of my husband. Then, I developed an intense pain in my back which comes and goes and now headaches. So in addition to the mental pain grief is now expressing itself physically. Am I crazy? I am so acutely aware of this that I am now questioning myself that I am actually experiencing the pain. I had myself convinced that I was not experiencing the extra heartbeat, until my cardiologist confirmed its existence. Has anyone else experienced physical pain as a reaction to the loss of their loved one.

No Denise you are not alone with the symptoms that you have been feeling. My Husband passed away 7 weeks ago today and I feel every symptom you described. We are all going thru such difficult times with the loss of our loved ones. You are not alone

"Kali I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal. Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
