    Im so sorry to hear so many are going through this nightmare, I feel like I’m stuck in October when we lost my dear husband. Some days I can get on with my day others I just can’t and don’t move all day and feel so angry that we were not enough, I miss ‘us’ ????

    Morning everyone I’m just sat here on my own and came across this forum.

    I lost my dear husband in October to alcohol and depression just before his 50th birthday.

    He always liked a drink but lockdown in March 2020 exasperated this he just lost the battle being at home 247 the demons in his head took over. In December 2020 I decided my teenage needed a safe haven for their own mental health so we moved out of the family home, I also thought this would make my husband realise he needed to seek professional support, he promised me he would and I promised as soon as he did we would move back, sadly he never did.

    Without the alcohol he was the kindest man we had been married for 21 years he was the love of my life and I convinced myself I would be enough and he would find his way back to me.

    We never stopped seeing him or loving him and I used to say one day I will find you life less he promised he would never do that to me.

    One night after a very busy shift at work I called to check on him and he was lifeless.

    The past 2 months have been a blur and even though I have amazing friends and family I feel so alone, reading all your posts have given me a little comfort knowing I’m not the only one because believe me you think you are!!

    For any one reading this please don’t be alone reach out I’m so sorry you are all going through this.

    Take care ❤
