Hey old friends. I am back on the site. Though I doubt I'll be back in the same capacity as before. How has this crazy times been for everyone? It's been tough for me. With less social interactions, there are less distractions from my grief. I do ...

It's been almost two years since my wife died. I still miss her, but I'm pretty much over the grief. The problem i'm having now is that there are VERY few single Agnostics/Atheist females in Boise, and I'm really tired of doing things by myself. I've...

Grief can't be shared. Everyone carries it alone, his own burden, his own way.

I can't stop crying today. One of the things I heard early on about death anniversaries is that the first is not the worst. I'm approaching the second anniversary of my husband's death (9/6), slept badly last night, read some posts on here about ...

Grief never leaves us. It shrinks from a great, consuming, pit, to something smaller, more manageable over time. A scar remains. But grief never leaves us. Author Unknown

I am new here. I lost my husband five years ago to a hospital-acquired infection the day after his 60th birthday. I was lucky to marry my very best friend. I live in a new city now, a place where we had originally planned to move together. It's ...

Not a good day today. Grief just seems to come out of nowhere sometimes and knock me right on my ass. This was taken the day he came home from the hospital for the last time. Our dogs were so happy to see him.

For some reason poetry helped me in my worst throes of grief. "Gently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind; Quietly they go, the intelligent, the witty, the brave. I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned. " — Edna St. ...

I lost a good friend last evening. His wife has embarked on her journey of grief now. I wish I had some words but having been through that myself just a short 4 years ago I know there are no words now. RIP Mr. Douse.

This seems like the perfect place to vent my feelings. I lost my husband seven years ago exactly 2 weeks after he drew his very first retirement check. He spent his whole life planning and saving and dreaming of retirement. We were married 34 ...

Does the weather affect your grief? Now that the weather's turned cold, and especially today while we're having an ice storm, I just absolutely ache for his presence. I keep looking at his chair, hoping he'll materialize. This sucks.

I have a number of widowed women friends, and five so far this year have found their love. I am very happy for them, but I become sad that none of my relationships worked out. I am doing some deep soul searching as to what I could have done or ...

It is no special day, nothing interesting happened, it is no anniversary of anything. Tonight the veil between going insane with the painful waves of grief and staying sane and reasonable are very thin. It's so hard to breathe. 08-17-17

Hi. I admit, I am not a widow. I joined your group because I have a question about my own grief. My father died a few days ago. The rest of my family are all Christian and believe my father is in a better place. I politely kept my mouth shut. my...

Well, on my travels I've had mixed responses to my grief and widowhood, I think I need to share the best of the worst though. A female 'friend' asked how long I was going to hold a candle for Jock and told me that perhaps I should go out and have ...

Anyone else get this, someone you know asks how you are, so being honest I say 'not really' and they say 'why, have you been ill?' And when I say 'no, I've been grieving' I get this look like I shouldn't be talking about it or I haven't got the right...
