  1. Hi, Chris,

    I'm so sorry you had to join our club.  Of course you are broken...you have lost your wonderful love wayyyyy too young.  We have the unfortunate task of having to figure out how to keep living after having our hearts broken.  I will tell you that it isn't something we want to do...but we somehow find our way through.  I joined this club 9 years ago (in just a few days) and renewed my membership 4 1/2 years ago when I lost my second husband.

     

    How did I do it?  One day at a time.  Maybe it is your job that will get you through the days.  Maybe it is friends.  Maybe you will spend time traveling like I did.  More than anything, I truly believe my widowed friends were the biggest force keeping my head above water, especially after the loss of my second husband.

     

    Right now...just focus on the day, the hour, the minute.  Eat when you can, drink lots of water, sleep when you can, and if you can be comfortable, reach out to anyone who is able to listen.  We are here...and we understand.

     

    Hugs,

      I’m used to it. My first husband was disabled. His death was not unexpected. It was still difficult.

      I lost my second husband unexpectedly in his sleep from unknown heart issues. The rug was just pulled out from under me. Sigh. I understand that kind of pain.

  3. I lost my husband back on 04/30/18 to suicide, one week after he lost his job. We had been together almost six years and was married back in Oct 2017.  I finally got a chance to start reading what others have been going through. Grief and loss has taught me even more about soul growth. I have been doing a lot of grief yoga to help me release and balance my mind/body.

      Hi, Swanprincess,

       

      I am so sorry you lost your beloved husband and in such a tragic way.  It sounds like you are doing good things to help you process your grief.  I wish I had your kind of discipline!  No matter what, this is a difficult and sad time and there is so much that we have to do - muddling through all the paperwork, trying to make sense of it all, trying to just get through each day.  I'm glad you found us - and I hope you make some connections here, perhaps with others who know loss through suicide.

       

      Hugs,
