My husband has been gone 5 months

I am having such tough day today. It will be 5 months on the 1st that he died. I miss him so much. I just want him to walk in the door and give me a hug and say everything is going to be ok. I cried before I went to bed and I have not stopped crying this morning. Thank goodness I have a grief share meeting tonight. This is the hardest thing in my life that I have ever gone through.

Today was a horrible day.I have been crying almost all day. I thought I was doing ok then BAM here comes the tears and the brokeness all over again. I know every one grieves differently and in their own time. I have to cut myself some slack but I am tired of being sad all the time and now the anxiousness is coming on strong. The devil knows the right buttons to push to make me anxious and doubt myself. I cry out to God to comfort me and fill the giant hole in my heart. I just don't know how anyone can go through it. It hurts so much.

I am sorry to hear of your loss.  I understand what you are going through. I lost my husband of 34 years to metastasized melanoma on July 1st 2011, one month today.  I happened so fast Im just now beginning to come out of shock and realizing what I have lost.  My kids are grown and moved away.  The house is so empty and my life so lonely I dont know how I am ever supposed to do this. My husband was diagnosed the end of April and gone just 2 months later.  This is for darn sure the hardest thing I have ever had to do.  I have faced losses before, my mom in 1984, a favorite nephew in 1990, a son in 2010.  The difference is now I dont have my husband to just hold me and tell me it is going to be ok.  I go to bed alone hurting, and wake up alone and hurting more.  I walk past the window and see his truck parked in the driveway and instantly think, Tom is home, only to immediately realize he is never coming home.

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.
