Jen Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 ... this would ever be okay. It's just hell. And that's all it ever will be. Just needed to get that out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swilson Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Nope, not okay and most times it's barely tolerable. Just get tired of surviving and existing. My coping skills seem to be improving and it helps a little in navigating this heartbreak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 I think sometimes maybe the key is to adjust to the flames, not wait for them to be extinguished. The meaning of "okay" has changed, just like every thing else in our lives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jen Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share Posted March 23, 2015 (((Hugs))) Thank you. I seem to be stuck in a mire of hopelessness just now. I can't shake it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursula Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Dearest Jen, I have finally found my way in, hope you are feeling a bit better in the meantime...I have been reading here but could not access. I find the wave analogy is so true, gladly the up-wave always comes. I find it dangerous to think about the future, because it always sets me on a tailspin. But: the near future looks brighter, because we are all going to meet in Amsterdam, that is something I am really looking forward to !!!!!! hugs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I was thinking about you and this thread this morning Jen. Just wanted to check in on you and hug you from a ways a way ... I agree. It's not ever going to be okay but days do roll around that are a little okay. Some days even better than that. Hang on and don't let go. We're here for you.

Jen Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 Thank you for this... thank you all, in fact. I've been ill, which just makes everything worse-- I've been reading, but I haven't been able to make myself respond. Just no words anymore. hugs, Jen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Yes when you're physically sick that seems to compound everything else for some reason. No uber encouraging message to give just know you're thought about, ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anniegirl Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Closing in on the first anniversary can be really hard and nearly anything can knock you - illness especially. I hope you are feeling (physically at least) better today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursula Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Dear Jen, no wonder you feel shitty, grief itself is making us weak and then sickness on top of that? Be kind to yourself, treat yourself . I send you a big health-hug, all drugs included and hope you will be on the mend soon. We need your wisdom and insight here you know... :-* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
