I'm having such a bad day today, I feel like I've gone backwards. I feel so sad and alone.
I'm so sorry. Couldn't pass this post without commenting to say that I have no doubt you are doing brilliantly in an awful time. There is no backwards, just ups and downs and bumps along the road. Take each hour by hour and just because you have had lots of bad hours today, doesn't mean tomorrow will be the same. I'm sorry you're feeling so sad and alone. There's a lot of support on here and a lot of people going through their own versions of what you're going through. Sending all my best wishes to you.
Realale,
although you are having a bad day, it is another day onwards.
Everything is so raw, traumatic, surreal.
Would it help you to tell us about your day?
I’ve had a bad one after a relatively good one yesterday.
All day I have been seeing signs.
However they have all been sad / bad memory signs which have had me in tears throughout the day.
In Sainsbury’s, walking into and home from town.
At mums.
At my neighbours.
At home.
A what the hell is the point kind of day.
But I know I will have more slightly better days coming.
I am sorry you feel alone.
We area here for you

Hi there, it is so soul destroying isn’t it. We don’t choose to feel like this. It is the loss, combined with extreme exhaustion and fatigue. At times, I can barely function and I am sure you feel the same. Try and just go with it for a bit, sleep when you can, eat when you can and let the pain out. I am still crying myself to sleep every night. The day time has got a little easier. Sending you hugs and cuddles. Kate. Xxx
