It's been 5 months and it feels no different than 5 months ago. The tears just keep coming. My husband of 20 yrs died suddenly at age 44. I was told it gets easier, but does not feel like it at all. The shock, the anger, the disbelief, the why, the hurt, the tears, the fear, everything still feels fresh. I get it all out when I see a therapist, but I want to be able to live one day without all that. I want to be able to have fun with my kids again without feeling sorry for them. They had the best dad in the world. He lived for his kids. It just sucks.....

I always hesitate about responding to posts like yours, because I cannot offer anything upbeat -- my husband died nearly four years ago, and it is horrific for me now as it was then.  It has never changed. For me, it never will.

The reason I decided to respond to your post (and often do to others as well) is that I want you to know you're not alone.  I waited to see if anyone else would respond, maybe with the kind of hope that I am unable to provide, but since they didn't I wanted you to at least know that your post was seen, and read, and that there are people here who understand (as well as another person who is not you can understand) how you feel.

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
