I feel like I don't want to go on

Like, I wish I could just die, too
I have never felt more alone in my life.
I can just imagine the responses:
"you don't mean that",
"don't say that" or worse yet
" you gotta move on"
Just how does one move on? Because someone tells you to?
I do know what I mean- it's just taboo to say it out loud.
If I don't express these thoughts it won't make the thoughts go away, they'll still crash over me like waves of insanity.
I'm depressed -I just want to sleep and not wake up.
But, yet I am not suicidal...
I just don't know how to move on
I don't know how to want to live

I want to be able to express these thoughts and be understood and not be scolded.
I don't want stupid pat answers or those lacking in understanding or empathy.
I don't want a lecture or verbal tripe disguised as advice.
I don't know exactly what I want ,but I know I don't want the above.
Empathy, understanding from someone who has gone through this and found a way- maybe ?
Or even someone who's going through it now and understands what I'm feeling? Perhaps.

Oh I definitely believe you mean it. Your whole life just ended. He is gone and won't be coming back. At least you have your son, daughter and grandkids. There are not words to describe how bad we feel for you. 💔😢😢😢
