I feel worse at the weekend

Hello again. My husband died 10 weeks ago &, although we were retired, I always seem to be more weepy & fed-up at the weekend. There seems to be a different atmosphere, maybe more people about because they're not at work & the sound of families in their gardens. Does anyone else feel like this?

    Very much so!  I have never really understood it but I suppose it's because it is a family time. It isnt a good time to be on your own, whether its because you have lost someone close or because you don't feel too good because of illness and seeing and hearing happy families around you just reminds you of what life has thrown at you and what you have lost.  

    I do hope that as time goes on you will find it easier to cope.  With my vest wishes.I
