โHello from the other side of it. About three years ago, that was me. Back then it was the will and my brother. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It's slow, but it does come back.โ
โFor whoever is where I was: I've been there. For me it was a few years back. Mine was mum died in March after a short illness. I went on holiday in the summer and actually relaxed. It's slow, but it does come back. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.โ
โFor anyone new to this: I've been there. For me it was in 2023. Mine was the will and my brother. I wake up most days without that dread. It's slow, but it does come back. Keep going, even slowly.โ
โFor anyone just starting this: it is going to hurt like hell for a while. You might feel guilty about the things you didn't say or do. That is normal. But the guilt is not the whole story. The love is. Keep talking to them if you want. Keep their number in your phone. And find one person who will listen without trying to fix it. That helps more than the advice.โ
