How much loss can a person take? I just buried my aunt who was by my side when I lost my soul mate.  She was there for me to talk to about him when I was missing him so bad, she was the one I could talk to about him without expecting me to heal faster.  I now lost the two most important people in my life within a year of each other.  I'm tired, exhausted, I miss them!!

Im having a really rough day today. It would have been the 9 month anniversary of our wedding and I am feeling cheated, angry and abandoned. I don't even begin to know how I can move forward from this, since my husband died I feel like I am in a living hell. I can't sleep, I can't eat, it takes a massive amount of energy just to even move. I haven't been outside much at all because I hate walking around the places we were together. I came to stay with my folks the day it happened and I haven't been able to go home since. And on top of everything my grandad died a few weeks ago and it is his funeral tomorrow. I loved my grandad and I feel so bad but I don't seem to be able to feel anything about it which is really upsetting me. I don't think I can go to his funeral either. I'm a mess. I just don't know what to do with myself. I feel like I'm at this stage where I'm like "now what?".

Thank you Linda, Morgan...I know the loss of a cat is minimal compared to the loss of our spouse, but it reopens hurts...reopens memories. Upsets the "normal balance" that's so fragile in our lives.

Fran,

So sorry about your kitty.  I lost our precious kitty sept 2015 who was essentially more my husbands kitty than mine and it tore me up.  It is so hard to deal with loss now. I find that to be one of the hardest things I am trying to emotionally incorporate into this "new" life.  I breakdown constantly when I hit something that I feel I may "lose".  It's even gotten to the point where I dread thinking that something may happen to someone.  Even the may happen scenario sends me into a breakdown at times.  All I know is even hearing about your kitty makes me send an extra bunch of stardust for you........hugs.........

annjulie, 

I am sorry you are having to deal with two horrible deaths, especially so closely to each other.  {{{{{hugs}}}}}

Comment by annjulie on February 6, 2017 at 10:06pm

Also, I read alot of stuff about people wanting to end it all. I get it I feel this way all the time without my Mom and my Boyfriend. But please anyone thinking of doing that you can come and message me. My Mother took her life and it is truly a horrible feeling. I can tell you how it feels to lose someone to suicide and you don't want to do that to anyone, especially your children or loved ones. I am not even 30 years old without a Mother, and when my Boyfriend died afterwards. I have no Mother to cry to. Nothing.

I'm 27 years old and a few months ago I lost my boyfriend of two years.. he was only 31. He died tragically, after being tasered to death by the police ... just 5 days after my Mother took her life. I understand that people lose their spouses at all ages. Reading your stories I wish that I had the chance to atleast have a life with my boyfriend... marriage or kids or a couple more years together. It sucks to not ever know what our future could be like. Maybe some people think I am lucky because I am younger.. or maybe I am lucky because I didn't have kids with my person. But I wish I had those things like some of you had... years of memories, wedding, kids... it all saddens me so deeply that we never had a chance

Fran,

Whether it is a human or an animal losing them is the same pain.

Comment by Fran on February 6, 2017 at 7:32am

As I write this my daughter's cat is taking his last breaths. I watch him take those last shuddering breaths and remember back to watching my husband doing the same thing just over 2 years ago. It may be silly, but I'm feeling the same sense of overwhelment. I feel like I'm losing another piece of Bill. Just when I think the pain has eased a bit something else happens to bring it all back. This is NOT a good day.

Comment by Linda Engberg on February 5, 2017 at 10:34am

Hi Morgan & Bluebird,

I feel exactly as both of you, Today is Superbowl Sunday, Julian and I loved that day, it was party time, now when they play all I think about is the last time we watched it together he was in the hospital, he died 3 months later.

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
