From people who came through it
โReading this late at night? I've been there. I've been there. For me it was not that long ago, about a year. The worst part was setting the table for four. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. It doesn't stay this heavy. Keep going, even slowly.โ

mossspring1966 ยท been through empty nestโI'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.โ
