    I lost my beloved husband last month and it has been the worst pain and devastation I have ever been through in my whole life... and I have been through a LOT. There is nothing as unbearable as losing the one you love and became one with. It leaves you feeling dead and all of your dreams died along with them.

    Losing a spouse you loved dearly leaves a void in your heart that can never be repaired. People say some stupid things too. I think people run away because it’s hard to be a friend to a grieving person. I was abandoned and betrayed. I made new friends who have gone through hardship and they are the best friends not phoney like the others.

      old Jill you poor thing. Tears rolling down my face for you. You're a good daughter. I used to love my grandparents a real lot and I used to help take care of them Till they died. And I added up working in nursing homes where I was around back of grandma's and grandpa's it made me feel a little bit better. Because I feel like they were the only ones that really loved me. I pray and I'll pray for you not to cry if you do. There's nothing worse than that panic a realization. I can't believe I'm still here. I won't be able to stay on this channel because my heart is breaking more for everyone here who suffers. There's a song by Mara Justine called the Sparrow I know he watches me. I listen to that and I feel better. Maybe you can find it too. The only peace I get is knowing that my family is with Jesus. So I know they're safe. And I know that I will see them again because of Dr Chuck Missler explaining heaven. I disappear from the face of the planet when I'm scared. And I shut people out and I don't even go outside. I know how you feel about feeling lost. I have dreams that I get to visit my father again at that I wake up and I wish it was true. Are we have is prayer with that nothing to lose. I pray for peace I pray for my sanity I pray for me to have enough money to support myself and God definitely is taking care of me I got my Social Security disability because of my bad migraines and blindness and asthma. But it's no fun anymore here. The way that man talks about heaven sounds like Hawaii and I like the part where there's no more sorrow or tears. I'm sending you a hug and know that someone out there on the other side of the world is praying for you to smile. And do your favorite things and look pretty and get your nails done. Hugs

      I feel very much abandoned and alone since losing my adopted mom just before Christmas and it’s hit me like a ton of bricks. 💔 I used to love Christmas no longer it is one of the most painful indeed reminders of losing my mom and not having much biological family. To go from being abandoned by my biological mom, to losing my dad as a teen, now the only mother I’ve known, the mother I never had is gone.😥😔😰 People get tired or feel burdened by you, because you don’t feel how they think you should. The stigma of grief I feel that even more heart wrenching or lonesome I wish and feel like oftentimes lately simply disappearing.😪 My sincerest condolences to you, @Angie along with you as well @Carol I’m sincerely sorry for your losses, grief can feel very much isolating in such a fast paced society and world that at times the people in it can be desensitizing and cause the stigma of grief even more.🥀 I still have days I can’t even leave the bed or want to interact with others like I’d rather suffer in silence. My faith and personal relationship with God has even been somewhat damaged. I don’t understand why my life’s journey has had to be this way, and the amount of holes/unanswered questions even. If God truly loved me or cared for me why so many losses abandoned and lack of parents if not adoption/foster care. I feel that even God, has abandoned me. 😞😔😞 I know my comment is extremely lengthy just being expressive and open as possible.

    I lost my father, five aunties and uncles, my wonderful volunteer job that helped me manage depression, and my fantastic, beloved cat who was my best friend and daily companion, in the space of a year and a half. I've never felt so lost in life, I feel so disorientated. I don't have a partner or any children. The life I had, a lot of it has crumbled away. I'm struggling with depression, loneliness and motivation to keep going. I was coping well with everything until my cat died because she was an incredible soul and she helped me to cope with all the other losses. I'm grateful for this RUclips channel, I'm finding it one of the few channels that really understand grief.

It is a terribly lonely time even though my 2 grown daughters live with me. I knew my husband for 67 years as we were both raised on the same street. He is the only one I have ever dated so the loss is tremendous. I am glad to get through each day as the loneliness is terrible. May the Lord help you through this terrible time.

He was bigger than life to me. My hero. Thank God, He has brought me this far. Thank you for these series. God bless you. So wondering where you are today? Did you never marry again?

Pray for the Lord’s help and grace. Invite Him into your pain. He will walk with you. Find a group or support system. My church has a grief share group for people who have suffered loss. You don’t get over it you continue to walk through it. It is 4/12 years now and I am doing so much better. I still miss my husband deeply. At 72 I am very content with my busy life have a very active life with friends but I am not interested in a relationship at all. However, to each his or her own. Life after loss is possible.

    People really do say ignorant things in a desperate attempt to try to somehow create a silver lining for us and it often doesn't resonate. For example when people told him at least he has his boys and he won't be lonely. How naive and ignorant for someone to say that and not realize there is a complete difference between the love of a father and his children and the love between his wife and himself. A child can never replace a spouse.

    I am grieving... I lost my loved one that I love so much who passed away 3 days ago that was sunday. I am devastated and don't know what to do with this mourning. I don't like a dark house. I turned all lights on in my house. I'm afraid of any dim light, cause I feel more lonely. For 3 days I don't sleep turning off my lights.

The stigma of grief I feel that even more heart wrenching or lonesome I wish and feel like oftentimes lately simply disappearing.😪

Now I know I am not alone. With Covid ref zone its been even difficult to fight loneliness. I am searching to share and converse but find it difficult who do not share the same as the grief I am going through.

    If you are lucky enough to have family close by the loneliness is minimal. But if you have no children or family then the grief and loneliness is long and very difficult. I found that living in a foreign country very few people stand up and help you. Some even abandon you because they don't want to hear you. Take heart, Jesus Christ isn't going to abandon you ever.

    BEREAVEMENT & LONELYNESS.
    NO ADVICE on this thread will ever solve the problem. People are't stupid. Do you not think they've searched in their own minds what they could do to combat their lonelyness? You could have a dozen friends during the day. Even go to a shitty clicky club once a week. BUT its late evenings. Early morning's where the one you were closest to is missing. No one to have casual conversation with knowing they were once some where in the house and in my case somewhere in my heart. Painfully this situation is insoluble. You cannot escape it. It's there for the rest of your life. That's the price we have to pay for loving some one. It's a measurement of the love and commitment we gave to our soul mate before they were taken. Theres a wise Saying. " No one can teach anybody anything. People have to decide to learn.".

But I have already adjusted to living alone these last three years when she was in a local nursing home. Its really good she isn't suffering anymore. I have very few friends and I see very little of my family even though they live fairly close. There are other reasons why I have so few friends that is not of my doing.

    Between Christmas and New Years and around Mothers Day are the worst firbmr. Since losing mom 3 years ago, new years, which was her birthday hurts a lot. Since she was the first baby born the year she was born,, she was born exactly at 12am Jan 1. There's no one to call and say happy new birthday year mom. My husband died may 8 2007 which was a mother's day weekend, buried may 11. My dad died may 11, yet another mother's day 2 years later. There are many hard days but these are the few that knock me lower than a snakes belly. I don't want to get up, eat, I just want to go to sleep and stay asleep, forever. But here I am, tomorrow's new years eve, covid-19 is running wild and I'm locked in my room in the nursing home, lonely as heck.
