From people who came through it

  • โ€œA note for the next person. Nearly four years ago I was exactly where you are. The worst part was her room. My kids say I'm back. The bad days get further apart. Hang on.โ€

  • โ€œThe 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.โ€

  • โ€œFor anyone new to this: I was right where you are a few years back. My youngest left for college in September, and I couldn't see past it. 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.โ€

  • โ€œHello from the other side of it. I was right where you are about three years ago. Back then it was my husband and I with nothing to say. I wake up most days without that dread. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold. Sending love.โ€
