Hi,
I am new to the group.
I lost my husband to suicide 18 months ago....I found him in his
car...car running...hose from the exhaust into the car. I feel like my
life
has been suspended since then as I try to go on with day-to-day living and
to deal with all the emotions. I have a pre-teen son who should have his
Dad. I have done all the things suggested to me to get through
this....counselling, sup****t groups, talking, reading books on
suicide....all of those things have helped, but I find that I am still
just
going through the motions of daily living....trying to stay strong for my
son. The roller-coaster of emotions is amazing...from anger to sadness to
depression etc....will this ever end? I have many good friends and family
who have been incredibly sup****tive and I am so thankful for them...yet
they
cannot fully understand how hard this is....not like someone who has been
through it themselves.
And now I am an only parent, not only dealing with my own emotions, but
trying to raise a child who has lost his Dad and to be a good parent to
him....it is so difficult to cope some days.
I would love to hear from anyone who can lend some insight from their
situation and how they have managed to get through.
Thanks,
Lori
