Looking up!

So for now the anger seems to have passed. I am realizing that in order for me to be happy again I must do things to make me happy. I am seeing a phsyc. tomorrow and starting therapy. I am supposed to be on medication as it is and with all of this I think its best if I get back on it. Its been one month today that my baby left me and for the last month I have done nothing. I quit my job and haven't even bothered to look for a part time job. I have gotten a few things taken care of for my… Continue

What is left?

I don't even know where to begin. I wish the anger would just go away. I have a child to raise and two children to help raise. It has been 2 1/2 weeks since I lost my love, my best-friend, and my soul mate. People keep telling me that life must go on but how is MY life supposed to go on when half of me is gone. Half of me is gone and sitting in a damn box in my living room. It is literally, physically painful to get up...to take care of my kids....to do anything but lay in bed. Laying in bed is… Continue

Hi Brittany, just read a bit of your story. I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my man to an accidental OD as well. My heart is broken into pieces, and life has lost all of it's sweetness. I appreciate you sharing your story though, because it makes me feel a bit of comfort to know that I am not alone in my loss...if that makes any sense. P.S. I am new to this site so idk if it is normal for me to be posting like this to random people's walls... sorry! Anyways, I hope you are doing well

 

Blessings! :)

Hi Brittany . Sorry it took me so long to accept your request. I work at night 10 hour shifts at a group home. I am very sorry for your loss. I am pretty new to this as well . It has been about 2 1/2 weeks for me. Although I wasn't married to Danny I was hoping to get back together with him and get to that point because we were once engaged. I was looking for him the past 2 years hoping to talk to him and tell him that I still was in love with him and wanted to work things out. I finally found his siter on a social website. She then told me Danny had passed away in February 2006. We were to have been married on Valentines Day in 2001. It has been very hard for me. I won't say I know how you feel because even if its similiar experiences we are each different. You are not alone and I will be honored to be your friend.

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

Being the Other Woman/Other Man

This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee More
