1 month today...

My husband got killed in a very tragic car accident on Feb. 2nd. I almost died in the accident as well...It feels like just yesterday this happened...It's been a month, I feel the same pain as I did the day he died. I want the pain to go away. I hate this...

I'm so very sorry to hear about your loss. I know you've probably been told this before, but the pain does go away--It just takes time. Everyone is different, of course, but it took me about seven months to get through the worst of it. I was told when my wife died that it's important to allow yourself to grieve, and not try to short-circuit the process. You're in my thoughts...

Krystle, 

I too am sorry for your loss.  I agree with Ellis, it does take time.  Being able to talk to others is very helpful, especially if you can see someone for grief counseling.

Krystal, the pain does not go away. Not for me. It gets stronger. The purpose of pain is to accept it as part of you and embrace it. Yet you've lost nothing but a flesh vessel. He is with u and in you. However, that longing for His physical presence you remember will keep you suffering.

My Fathers Loss

Many years ago, I lost my father after his battle with colon cancer that later spread to his bones. The grief stayed with me longer than I expected. Ambrosia Behavioral Health helped me work through that loss, understand my emotions, and find healthier ways to cope and move forward. https://www.ambrosiatc.comSee More

Traumatic loss of an only child

I started this group so that people who have lost their only child or the only child that remained, as in my case, could come together because I believe people that did have a child or children who now have none have special issues.

Loss of a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide

If you have lost a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide please share your story or feelings here. Share the love and beauty of the one you lost. Losing someone any of these ways is not natural and can be hard to understand and ask why? I lost my Mother to an overdose 9 years ago. She also suffered from major depression. Her doctor got her hooked on pain medication and she was addicted most of my life. These doctors who were suppose to help her ended up killing her in the end. I also…See More
