I'm messed up. My girl dog passed in March. It's gotten worse. [View all]
Feels like my heart has been ripped out. The one in my soul.
Mainly evenings & nights it comes on me in waves.
I 'go though the motions' daily.
Had no idea this profound grief could be experienced.
I cry a lot. On and off.
I can't unremember her passing next to me in bed that early March morning
I did over & beyond for her while she was here. I couldn't save her.
I will not attempt to 'preserve' my life, however the remainder, so be it.
I am grateful for listening again to me.
Peace Be Unto All.

I have a tendency geared toward perfectionism. Which can also be a negative.

I can certainly relate to it being difficult without our planetary neighbors.

I've been there, too, my friend. It's been over 2 years for me, but I still hurt when I think of my pup

Mourning a loved animal is so very, very hard. Give yourself as much time as you need.

The more you loved your dog and the more your dog loved you the more it will hurt.

I understand how you feel. Still mourning my GSD who disappeared when I was 11.
