My time as come to say "Goodbye " to my darling husband. That was on the 6th February, again i have to say goodbye to him again on the 3rd March at his funeral. I have spent the last week crying. I feel so exhausted with all the tears & heart ache my body feels right now.
After being his carer for so many years, I have know got to find myself again, find new friends . I don't work & I don't know what I want, where to start.
Hi Jodie97
Grief is a really complex time and there is no "right" answer, there are a number of people in our Bereaved family and friends forum who will have some practical experience to share. Crying is really natural - I tend to regard it as love leaking out from my eyes and I am really terrible at funerals. Breathing exercise can help me be able to talk to others - the old saying of take a deep breath can really work.
<<hugs>>
