    Hi Amissue, I remember you and I am just so sorry for your loss. Have you gone for therapy or any sort of grief counseling? The grieving process can be a long one, but drinking all of the time is not going to make it any easier. I know it seems like the easiest solution right now but it is not solving anything, it is only making you feel worse. Therapy could be a good thing for you to get it all out. You are in my prayers.

      oh sweetie, It seems fairly clear that you are drinking to ease your pain. Can you go see a grief counsellor and get some tips on how to get through this without killing yourself in the process? Is this what he would have wanted for you?

        So sorry to hear of your loss. I agree with Lushy re. counselling. If you are in the uk
        call the samaritans or c.r.u.s.e.
        My prayers are with you.

          Hi Missue,

          Take Lushy's advise and see if you can get some help with some therapy. I am so sorry for your loss. You will find great support here.

          I heard a little quote once: "there is no problem that having a drink won't make worse". You must be greiving terribly I'm so sorry,

            Dear Amissue,

            I am so sorry for your loss, I can not imagine that. I am glad you are here to talk with us. Wish we could all hold you and hug you.

            Everyone above has given great advice. Grief counseling would help I am sure.

            Do you have the hypno CD's? They can be so calming taking you to a place of peace. Your husband would not want you to suffer like this. Please take some time to find a place of comfort, a parent, sibling or friend close by to hug and hold you. Helping you through this incredibly hard time by being there with you, feeding your heart, soul and body.

            My thoughts and prayers go out to you,
            Mary

                Amissue,
                I also remember you. I am very glad that you came back and so sorry that you are still hurting so badly. Grief counseling and support groups are wonderful. Please stick around. Gaba works wonders for me when I am feeling stressed.

                  Hi amissue
                  Oh my god how awful, this is going to take a long time to heal, especially since there is an inquest, try to be kind to yourself, i now the drinking stops the pain for a while , but try to take it easy give your self some limits, i dont think abs is going to work right now so try mod, have you got the cds, they take your mind off things to try doing them or logging on before you drink might help.
                  ACCEPTANCE IS A POWERFUL THING

                      How sad. Remember - Your grieving will never end as long as you drink to avoid it. So you have even more need to overcoming drinking - so you can go through the grieving process and heal.
                      Love to you.
                      Hugs,

                            Amissue, you will find some peace and support here, and I think Lushy has given great advice about seeking a support group for grief.

                            Give yourself time... you might still be in shock and there is no right or wrong time line for grieving. Everyone does it at their own pace, and I think it's important for you to really recognise this, so you don't feel bad, or make yourself feel worse.

                            Gee... we're here for you! The CD's are amazing at helping to switch off. there are some really great meditation CD's around that also help deal with grief. You could always Google search your area to see if there are any of those herbally type bookshops that might sell some CD's self guided meditations like that, to help assist with the grief as well as the counselling/therapy and the MWO CD's and Supps that you ordered. I hope they arrive quickly for you.
