I struggle with the absolute loneliness and being isolated. The one thing I would like to change is to have him back.

Thank you Rick for your message, my husband died 3 weeks ago, we were together for 40 years. We live 60 kms from the nearest town, our area is somewhat isolated, there are things I would like to get involved in, but I hate the travelling especially at night because of the kangaroos on the roads. I do talk to my children regularly.

How do you describe the absolute loneliness I feel. People say you should learn to like your own company, I do during the day but evening are so long. There is no one around, my children live a long way away and I live in a rural area. I think others think I should be able to cope, but I hate it and I don’t want to be here by myself. I drink to numb the pain and I hate myself for being so weak. Sometimes I feel I just can’t be bothered with it anymore.

Hi all, I don’t know how to deal with this resentment I feel towards my partner. I feel like all I am here for is to care for him. And it is happiness that matters, I feel very miserable and selfish.

I am not sure I can do it anymore. I wish there was an easy way to finish it all. He just doesn’t get it . I drink too much to get me through it. Do I just accept that I have to everything until it’s all over. I am selfish and I wish it was me so he could see howfxxxing hard it is. I am lonely and I am sick of it all.
