I haven’t been on this forum for a while but tonight I need the comfort of knowing that I’m not alone in my grief. Although I miss Dave everyday I usually manage to make it through and I have a very busy life (it has been said that perhaps it’s too busy and that I’m avoiding my feelings) but for some reason today it’s hit me like a ton of bricks again. I haven’t sobbed this hard for months , but after four and a half years it feels like people think you should be over it. So I’ve come here to share because it’s a safe space to let it all out - and sometimes that’s all we need to do Thanks for listening
