I saw a post somewhere where the surviving spouse got rid of all departed belongings or at least stored it. I more or less incline to do that but at the samed time continue the legacy of the departed.Of course who the hell would remember me. Yes I want to change things at home. I have 35 yrs of memories  Stuff to sort thru stuff to put in a scape book.Stuff to throw away.I get ideas as I go along.

Its a burden,Our life was a burden in the later years

I to have a lot of my wifes clothes and other things.  she died almost 3 years ago.   i been by myself since.  my children hardly call me even though i leave messages.  they live in other states.  combat was easier then what I am going thru right now.   my grief and depression is the most severe in my life.  i truly see no happiness left in my life.  I have gone for help several times but nothing had helped.   I try to keep busy writing poems and the second part of my book.   At the moment its 1 pm and I have not gotten out of the house because of how I feel.   everything just looks dark.  Have a great weekend and fathers day.    irwin

its unreal how fast stuff accumulates when your just living your life together.  i look at all of jason's stuff with good memories and yet at the same time overwhelmed. i guess just take your time and do a little when you can and/or maybe ask for help from someone close. wishing you well.

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.

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
