Morning everyone i managed to go back to work really struggled with meeting work buddies for the first time i know i had to get back to some kind of normality but just couldn't hold myself together my emotions have been all over the place really feeling lonely especially in the mornings i have a 20 minute walk after my 25 mile drive to work and that walk becomes so tear full i cant make any sense of it all i am really struggling with every aspect of it all sorry for being such a plumb how are you all getting on hopefully your getting stronger each day really looking forward at some point when i can go to a bereavement group and let it all out knowing that these people are on my wave level thanks for listening take care Reg
Hi Reggie
I think we are all different and grieve in different ways. I don't find myself so tearful now. I still find music difficult but then I avoid it! I also keep really busy. Just my way of dealing with it. I haven't got to the year yet which is Christmas

You are doing ok .You have managed a major step going back to work so that is really brave .You just have to celebrate anything you achieve at the moment however small Its is the loneliness that gets you. I struggle when I come home from work I expect him to say Hello darling you ok ? So I just say it to him wherever he is now nearby I hope !!! .Keep posting we all understand x
