    Torry, I've only just seen your post. Sorry I wasn't on here last night......I lost my internet, so couldn't log out, and gave up in the end and went to sleep.

    I hope you were able to read what the others have said, and I echo that.
    You are too valuable to give up. Like MU said, I am sure your lovely husband wouldn't want you to die before your time.

    Your life does have meaning, even though you can't see that it does right now, but one day you will see that it does, I absolutely promise you you will.

    Have a little 'talk' to your husband, tell him how you're feeling, and listen to him telling you what to do.
    Then write down his words, fold up the piece of paper, and carry that with you everywhere.

    :A



    Other women who have gone through exactly this will be able to help you, and you won't feel so alone. I'm talking about Cruse. People I know who have contacted them have told me how much benefit and comfort they got from Cruse.
    I do feel you need some support right now, from people who have gone through exactly the same. We can only imagine it, but others have actually experienced it.
    Please, please phone them?

    Morning Torrey. Morning everyone else.
    I hope things appear a little less dark for you this morning.

    I didn't get to sleep till late then overslept this morning so am running late. I won't get the chance to check in during the day, but I'm sure people will be around if it helps to post.
    Be kind to yourself.

    Torry, I can't begin to imagine what you're going through but please try to remember that there are people who care about you.
    I hope that things are feeling a little less bleak today.

    Torry if you're there, how are you feeling today?

    Had a noce day, went back home to see my family, not seen them since chrostmas so it was long overdue. Bit annoyed as i found out my mum has a heart condition and even ended up in hospital but she never told me, i rememeber talking to her around the time it happened and she didn;t mention it, Swain thinks its because she didn't want to worry me, which is probably true, i think shes ok now, shes on medication and under a cardiologist. Still worries me though, i feel like a bad daughter for not being there for her when she needed me.

    yesterday i went to see my friends and their kids, oh my god they are adorable, the little boy is 3 and his sister is 18months. They were an absoloute joy to be around and i'm going to keep in regular contact from now so i get to see everyone more. Being aware of consent i asked them if they wanted a hug or a high 5, i remember being a kid and not being comfortable hugging parents friends so i thought it better to give them a choice.

    I'm here, physically and mentally exhausted. Little sleep last night and called Samaritans. There's lots in my head
    Lost my soulmate so life is empty.

    Torry I think pyxis suggested calling cruise, they are really helpful I used them when my dad died.

    Just popping in to say I hope everyone is ok.

    The weekend has finally arrived which involves Gitdog and I in a small tent. I have packed alcohol. Lots and lots of alcohol. This could be the worst idea I've had in a while.
