"Hi Miriam, You have my deepest admiration and empathy. I don't have any family left to speak of. For years there was no one to talk to about my daily life. Although I found it difficult to be open with people and preferred to help them rather…"

An uncle in our family committed suicide. For five years his wife, Aunt Alice, said the same things over and over again to anyone who would listen. We are a loving family, so we listened and said the same hopefully comforting things back to her again and again. And after five years she was done and could move on. I hope it doesn't take five years, but I need to talk about my Uncle Jim and my cousin Paul and probably repeat myself a lot. It took a long time to develop my relationship with…See More

Katherine A Pericas Geersten posted a discussionHello, a little bit about me.
Two months ago, my mom committed suicide. As of now, this has to be one of the hardest things I have ever dealt with in my life. I hope that through this forum I may be able to just reach out to someone who can kind of understand what my situation is like.My friends try to talk to me (and I do reach out to them) but I feel that the situation I am in is a really heavy thing to talk about (basically I don't want to rope my friends into my troubles, nor do I want to be a burden to them). I talk to…See More

This morning there was a crescent moon. I always called it a "fingernail moon," but my cousin Paul called it a "toenail moon." I got all choked up seeing it. Then the Valentine cards are out at Walmart. He loved all the holidays, and I always sent him cards. But no more. More tears to fight back. Sometimes his love for you would overflow, and he would just have to give you a big hug and tell you that he loved you right then and there. I have never had anyone else do that for me. I knew…See More

So sorry for your loss, my post is on here somewhere, but reading all these sad posts makes me sadder and wonder if I should but we are the only ones who know how it feels
Hello Robin. I lost my husband of 34 years to cancer 3 weeks ago. I am already exhausted by the brutality of this grief. Sometimes my knees buckle from the physical body blows. My stomach aches and my head hurts and my heart is shattered. I thank God that at least other people understand. I realize there are two worlds now. One inhabited by those who haven't and those inhabited by those who have lost the love of their life. I keep going because I have to but I pray to go home every single day. I know that even when this becomes more bearable and eventually it will my best days are behind me. So it's going through the motions until it's my turn. I pray for all us daily and send my love to you and others who truly know what suffering is.
Hi Robin, I too lost my husband of 20 yrs on 1/30/2016. I am still very lost and heartbroken.
I am so sorry for your loss.
