Trying to handle things as best as I can, but the last few days have been very rough emotional wise. Been online very sporadically and for very short periods at a time. Escapist television has had limited effect. I'm reading some, but having a very hard time staying focused on what I am reading.
I am still having a very hard time sleeping and that does not help.Most nights I wake up several times an hour and thus sleep for only a few minutes at a time. I have always had insomnia issues, but nothing to this level with what I have been going through the last few weeks.
In short, this remains hell.
Hang in there. Easy to say but hard to do, I know.
ReplyDeleteSix months is the marker I always hear. A lot of bad months until then, I know. Please consider getting therapy or join a grief group.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jerry. I am trying.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Patti. I was not aware of the six months deal. I am thinking about doing that. Despite everything, I remain sober and all that so I am doing something right.
ReplyDeleteGrieving is the hardest thing in life, I think. Her birthday and all the holidays will be very tough too. I haven't ever checked but maybe there is an on-line grief group to join. Remaining sober is a very positive thing.
ReplyDeleteHang in there, Kevin. Take the positive and relaxing moments when they appear, and press on. Easier said than done.
ReplyDeleteIt is what it is. Sigh.
