I lost my grandpa 7 months ago.
Whilst the initial pain has subsided, i still feel just as upset/angry/guilty as i did when he died.
What makes it worse was that i never got the chance to say goodbye and this breaks my heart everytime i think about it.
I wont say 'i know what you're going thru', cause i know its different for every1. What i will say is that i understand how you feel and how much it hurts. I go through cycles where sumtimes i almost forget whats happened and then times where i feel utterly alone and depressed.
I also understand that you feel as though your family is falling apart. One member of my family put my grandpa through an awful lot of stress b4 he died and i cannot help bt partially blame them for his death. They're starting to do the same thing to my grandma bt i cant say anything cuz no1 will let me.
I know the grief will subside eventually and i know that i wont ever forget him but knowing these things and achieving them are very different things altogether.
I am very sorry for your loss and i hope you and your family make it through this difficult time. Talking really does help or writing your feelings down if you dont have any1 to talk to.

I have tried writing down all the horrible things i think like how angry i am chris died and cruel it is my kids dont have a dad and it honestly does help to get it out. But it does sometimes focus on the bad too much so i make sure i always write down something good thats happened today before bed. That way i can see there is still some good in the world. Even something little like managing to put your washing away can seen huge when your grieving.
