Lost my daughter to an impaired driver

I lost my only child in 2010.  The pain feels as bad today as it did then.  It's as if no time has passed.  It may as well have been yesterday.  I try not to show my pain but I am such a radically different person now.  I feel no joy.  I hardly remember what joy feels like.  How do I get through the rest of my life?   He took everything that day.

I am sorry for the loss of your child. I agree that time seems irrelevant now. Just pain, every day, all day.

Thank you.  I am sorry for your loss as well.  I really don't know how to get past this daily horrible 'missing' pain.  My health has suffered greatly and truthfully I don't really care.  Doctors act like I'm just saying that but I really don't.  I feel like I lost the point to my life.  And the aloneness is so overwhelming.  I know you know exactly what I'm talking about.

"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
