I truly hate to complain, but I need help.  I am on anti-depressants for 3 months, but I still l feel totally defeated.  I recently lost my best friend, business partner, husband, the  love of my life.  He died in my arms from a sudden heart attack.  He was ten years younger than me and I always assumed I would go before him.  I don't know what to do with my life.  I had a heart attack seven days after his heart attack.  I wanted to go with him.   However, apparently the Lord wanted me to live.  I need help.  I need o tak to someone who is going thru the same thing.

Tammie,

First of all, welcome to HealingWell and the depression forum.

I lost my husband ten years ago due to lung cancer.  The only thing different is that we had some time together as we knew he was going to die.  I realized that I should have been making the most of every day with him.  That is what I make sure to do now, make the most out of every day. 

Here is a site that might help you to find some counseling.

I hope that this helps.  Continue to post as the members here are so kind and compassionate.  Be good to yourself.  Grief can take a long time and is different for each individual.  I have made many friends here and I hope that you do the same.

Take care.

Hugs, Karen

Tammie, my husband died on Oct 22 from a heart attack. He was waiting to hear from his doctors as to what they were going to do for him. He died in front of myself and my 23 year old son. That's all I see when I'm laying in bed trying to go to sleep. The paramedics working on him. I'll never forget it.

I'm so sorry for your loss. 'It's Genetic' said, take one day at a time. Very wise advice.
