Not having the usual evening calm, tonight it's anxiety.  I never had an issue with this in my life before my wife passed away.  I don't like how it is become a more prevalent feeling.   It's debilitating.

I am still in denial.  How such a good day went so bad, how so many little things would probably changed the outcome, can't come to terms with what happened.  I will never understand the alcohol addiction, putting alcohol before your own welfare and that of your family.

I have evenings where I have felt normal, not tonight, can't relax.  

I have been working on this post for a while and the anxiety has started subsiding.  

I used to be a calm and confident man, my world has truly been turned upside down.

No need to apologize, I am just riding the roller coaster.  Some less bad days some very bad, I look forward to when I have a good day.  If I figure out the secret sauce to feeling good I will let everyone here know.  And I do hope something I says helps or at least distracts you for a few seconds.

Take care

Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?

Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More
