I keep reading grief support sites intro . I suppose that what you do join a grief support group. I didn,t realize what a screwed up life I had untile my wife died.Hows that possible I mean she would have recovered got out of the hosp and we would have been back in the same"bipolar life" Me with my compulsions. So she died umm now the grief is really setting in.Even with welbutin as a chaser.OMG! 30 minutes and my relief shows up. Iam off the next shift.Have to go for a medical procedure. What a horrible twist of fate me living and her dying.After all how many times could I have sucked down some vodka and hopped in our 1998 plymouth voyager untile I killed someone in a wreck or got tossed in jail.So I cann,t even come close to saying God spared me.Driving while under the influence was a very bad escape when she tossed me out. I never did a dam thing to change this in 35 yrs.

 

So here Iam spinning out of control.Her presence is strong I was such a loner for 35 yrs when married to her I don,t even know how to live on my own or how to live.Its a double slap in the face.Her death and my inability to cope . How funny ha ha 

I vented

David it really is very hard to learn how to be one when for over 30 years we were part of a twosome. Tom was my best friend and I didnt need many other friends so now he is gone "our" friends either feel uncomfortable around me or I feel uncomfortable around them so I avoid them.  I know Im spending too much time alone but I dont know how to fill the void yet.  I hope you find some peace and a path that leads you to a better place in your life.  I guess I hope that for all of us here.

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
