Hi Aidan
You must be absolutely reeling from this. I found being here helped when my husband died,just having somewhere to write feelings i couldnt express verbally to anyone,-nobody can see the tears and snot while youre writing like they can face to face if that makes sense.
But also everyone here has lost some-one, and so people here do understand. Everyone is different of course, but grief has similarities that we can all recognise and relate too, some are further down the road than others and have developed coping strategys you can try, we,re not professional councellors no text book stuff, just experience.
The forum is simple to use, but dont worry about the technocalitys we can easilly sort it.
