From people who came through it
โIt is hard when they leave. The silence is loud. I know. I felt it too. You will cry. You will feel lost. That is normal. But you will find new things. I started painting again. I do nails for the neighbours. It is not the same. But it is something. Find your something. And call your children. They miss you too. They are just busy living. You will get through this. I promise.โ
Ayลe O ยท been through empty nestโA 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
mossspring1966 ยท been through empty nestโThe 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
Steady Puffin ยท been through empty nestโIf you're scared right now, I get it. I've been there. For me it was not that long ago, about a year. Mine was setting the table for four. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. It doesn't stay this heavy. xโ
