I've eaten tons of junk food. Cookies, cake, hamburgers, hotdogs, you name it- I ate it.
And I've had lots of naps. Some for 20 minutes, some for a few hours.
I keep hearing from people that I should allow myself to grieve in my own way in my own time. And maybe you can too.
Lots of positive thoughts for you. I hope you can find some relief soon
Men totally are allowed to cry. People are totally allowed to cry when they've experienced such devastating loss.
Yeah, it's about going through the grieving process and not repressing our problems... or else we become like them.
I'm thinking about going out of town to get away from everything in this city that reminds me of him and our good times. Maybe I should move to Africa and work in an orphanage and put my codependency to good use
