โPlease be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. I wrote them a letter and kept it in my bag for months. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ
โI'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason. It doesn't, but you can get through it so I did, and I'm not especially strong so I tell people straight what I need now. They usually just don't know.โ
โHello from the other side of it. I've been there. For me it was two years ago. Mine was looking after my parents now. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It changes. It really does. Be gentle with yourself.โ
โIf you're scared right now, I get it. A few years back, that was me. For me it was his children. Now I sleep most nights. It changes. It really does.โ
