      Treatments

      Crying Not Working
      so sick of crying. makes me tired,eyes ache get out of control. I guess it must do something though as it is the most natural thing to do when we are sad
      Getting Angry Not Working
      just makes me feel exactly that angry! and i don't like it
      Grief Counseling Somewhat Helpful
      helpful at start but not down the track a bit. just for venting really can't help me through this
      Keeping Busy Somewhat Helpful
      i find i am either feeling like my life is in slow motion or i am wearing myself out on something. when i have been busy i guess it has felt a little better in a strange way probably because i feel as if i have achieved something
      Music Not Working
      can't bear to listen to music. tryed and just makes me unbearably sad. loved old love songs and country before.
      Reading Not Working
      can't concentrate. would love to be able to read, tryed but my mind is only focused on my loss
      Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
      mostly don't want to be around them.It's just to hard
      Time Not Working
      feel as bad as i did 6 months ago just a different bad
    • Close Widows & Widowers

      My husband passed away on the 12th Jan and I am completely lost. I read where this is normal but it doesn't help. I feel like I'm living in a different world and don't want to see any friends. I feel alone and can't get a grip on what has happened. How can someone just disappear. I worry about him and feel different from everyone else. The days go by but if I don't write down daily journal I can't remember what I did the day before. What a nightmare

      Treatments

      Grief Counseling Working / Worked
      helps a little, the closest person I have to understanding what it's like. Just some-one to vent on, can't really offer any ways to make it easier. Just have to keep going however I can. Usually feel bit better after talking with her.
