• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

HI, I'm really sorry for the pain you are feeling. I just wanted to let you know that I understand. I lost my husband almost 3 years ago, and it has taken a very long time to try to work through the grief. And that is what you are feeling right now...greif from your loss.

Someone said that it takes time and that is something none of us wants to hear, but yet it's so very true.
Talking about this to someone...a friend, or someone who really cares...that helps too. It's important to get your thoughts out, even if you take a piece of paper and write down how you feel. I also think we should give ourselves permission to feel the way we do. It's ok to do that. Don't hold in your pain.
God is a wonderful comfort if you ask him. I wish it were true that he would take away the pain, but I think we have to go through the pain...not around it. It helps us to grow, and eventually heal.
It will get better...as it has for me. I just keep telling myself that God has a plan for me. Something wonderful. He has a wonderful plan for you too.
(((((hugs))))
