From people who came through it

  • โ€œFor anyone new to this: Two years ago, that was me. The worst part was finding him. I went on holiday in the summer and actually relaxed. It's slow, but it does come back. Sending love.โ€

  • โ€œIf you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it's easy so the first few months were the worst of my life. But I'm writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad so lean on whoever offers, even if it's awkward and people want to help, go slowly.โ€

  • โ€œIf you've just found this place, a year and a half ago I was exactly where you are. For me it was guilt about the last conversation. My kids say I'm back. The bad days get further apart.โ€

  • โ€œI was in the same place eighteen months ago. It was the why with no answer and I couldn't see past it. These days I mostly feel like me. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do.โ€
