โPlease be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. A grief counsellor helped me more than I expected. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ
โSorry if this is a lot. Please be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. I let myself be sad for an hour a day and then do something. It sort of works. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ
โFor whoever is where I was: About three years ago, that was me. I remember the empty basket like it was yesterday. Now I sleep most nights. It changes. It really does.โ
โI know it feels like too much right now, and people might say the wrong things like it was just a cat. They don't know how much space that animal took up in your life. For me, the empty basket was the worst part, and the walks we did without him. What helped was letting myself cry whenever it came, not on a schedule. And finding one person who got it, even online. You are not weird for how much this hurts. It's real, and it will slowly get softer, not smaller. Just keep going, and if you can, keep the routine if it feels okay.โ
