    Cant be bothered

    Hi

    I lost my wife to cancer in January and I thought I was coping okay, Everybody rallied round the step sons and they seem to have lots of help at hand including me ,but for me it seems to be getting worse I am very down ,Havent been to the doctor as all they do is prescribe drugs with side effects despite being put on sleeping tabs which was assured had no side effects but due to them had to come off after 2 weeks.My wifes family and friends who I have on here are very supportive and have been a great help ,but I just feel very alone in the world when I go home.My youngest stepson moved out after only a month after my wifes death which was a shock he said he couldnt stand the memories. I dont know the words cant be bothered just sum up my life at the moment. they say time heals but it seems to be getting worse.
    sorry to rant guess just letting off steam.

    Sending you virtual hugs and positive thoughts, Roger.

    I can't think of any suitable words really but you are in my thoughts.

    I am thinking of you Roger. I can't imagine how hard it must be for you, and I wish there was something I could do to help. I do know in time you will find a way of coping with your loss, and life will begin to feel better. It can be a slow process, and some days will seem worse than others, but hopefully with each passing day you will begin to find your way.

    thinking of you Rodger, they do say that time is a great healer, and although it doesnt feel like that at the moment, in time you will begin to feel better, take comfort, in knowledge your wife was so loved, and her friends on here are here for you, pop into chat sometime, im sure she would like to see you there

    big hugs

    Hi Roger

    Sorry to hear you are feeling so down. I do think of you all the time.

    One thing that you may consider doing is moving house. I know this sounds drastic but I know when Alex's dad died his step mum couldn't bear being in the house without him so she moved nearer to her daughter and away from the house and area they lived in for so long.

    I know this won't make you in any way forget Kazz but perhaps one of the triggers for you is being alone in the house you both shared.

    Just my thoughts anyway.

    If you ever want a chat let me know and I will give you a call.

    Take care Rog

    xx
