From people who came through it
“I've been there. For me it was in 2023. Mine was setting the table for four. Now I sleep most nights. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold. Sending love.”
green.owl · been through empty nest“The quiet is the hardest part at first. I am only a few months ahead of you. For me, the first weeks I just sat and listened to the clock. Then I started going to the charity shop and that gave me a reason to get up. I also walk. Every day. It does not fix it but it helps. Your child will come home and then leave again, and that is okay. You will find a new rhythm. It is slow, but it comes.”

Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. It doesn't stay this heavy. Keep going, even slowly.”

I went on vacation in the summer and actually relaxed. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold. Keep going, even slowly.”
