What do I do now

I seem to have reached an impasse. I feel I cant go on. My partner was my life. I do feel guilty tho, I look around and see those who have bravely got on with their lives. I feel I can't, or even don't want to. Is this really bad/selfish?

I am so sorry about the struggle you face. The loss you have suffered.


Follow the link below. You will find that your feelings are normal. We all grieve differently, and the loss of our loved ones is the most traumatic experience in our lives.

I understand. It has been 3 years and 3 months for my loss of the rock in my life. My Mother.

For me I am considering trying a grief specialist because I have nobody in my life that fills the void.

This has been the worst time of my life. I am not sure how long this goes on I guess it is a personal journey.

All I know is that there will come a time it gets easier with time. Lots of time. I also know that after three years if you think you need help from someone other than the people you know it is time to seek it.

I have felt like that before.  It's okay to feel your feelings, they are yours.  Did your partner encourage and support you during your relationship?  What would they say or tell you if they were sitting right in front of you and you told them this very thing?  

This grieving process is so difficult and there are no easy answers.  My heart goes out to you; bless us all--

Movies about grief that actually understand loss — any recommendations?

Hi everyone  I’m new here and honestly never thought I’d need a space like this, but here I am. I’ve been living with grief for a while now, and some days it’s quiet, some days it hits out of nowhere.Lately I’ve been watching movies about loss and grief - not to make myself sad on purpose, but to feel understood. Sometimes seeing grief on screen helps when it’s hard to explain what’s going on inside. The problem is that many “grief movie lists” online feel very surface-level or overly dramatic,…See More
