it was 6 months since my husband passed away last week & I finally broke down completely, I was sobbing so uncontrollably I could not breathe I was home alone & it came on so suddenly it was quite scary gasping for air, I have been struggling a lot & am having counselling & have started anti-depressants to make it worse I have started early menopause & am experiencing hot sweats, really low mood & going from fine to exhausted in a minute I am struggling to settle back into work & have no enthusiasm or motivation for anything, I feel so guilty feeling like this when there are many people much worse off than me who just get on with things but I just can’t seem to bring myself out of it , I miss my husband my best friend so much.
