From people who came through it

  • โ€œI'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason and it doesn't and but you can get through it. I did, and I'm not especially strong so keep one thing of theirs close. For me it's his jumper.โ€

  • โ€œPlease be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder, routine saved me and same time up, same walk, same tea. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ€

  • โ€œReading this late at night? I've been there. I've been there. For me it was a few years back. Mine was my marriage under strain. I went on holiday in the summer and actually relaxed. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold.โ€
