Profile Information

About Me:
I am 65 Y/O. My husband of 44 years committed suicide June 4, 2015. I am on medication and in therapy, but it isn't getting any easier.
About my Loss:
My husband and I were married 44 years, most of which time he battled alcoholism. I tried all the things codependent/enablers try. When I finally stopped doing those things, I locked myself in a room and painted sun faces. I visited my sister in another city; my husband was never pleased about spending time alone, and drank while I was away, never eating, only drinking, and talking about suicide - he even joined the Hemlock Society. Our 35 Y/O son lived next door, and took his keys and wallet. That morning, I was at my sister's, my son called and said, "He did it!" He took a gun and shot himself in the head; my son heard the shot and found him. I was in shock and allowed others to make my decisions for me. We sold the house and everything in it for pennies and went to Hawaii to buy a printing business, which didn't work, because neither of us were in any condition to do anything, much less start a new life without my husband. I don't know how to live without him. I don't look forward to life without him. Now, I have no home, no car, no life. My sister is ill and I am taking care of her. I resent it, her and my husband for killing himself. I am at a total loss as to what to do, or how to do anything.

Jennifer replied to Robin H's discussion Lost my Partner who wasn't my partner in the group Being the Other Woman/Other Man
"Welcome to the group.  I lost my partner on February 5th this year, so it's still pretty raw for me too.  Reading through your story really touched a chord with me.  Like you, I didn't think I would ever find a group like…"

Being the Other Woman/Other Man

This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee More
