Can't sleep.

But I'm so tired. It's 3am. I'm freezing cold and have a sweater on with a duvet and a thick fur throw on the bed and now I feel sick too. I'm missing my husband. I have a horrible sense of anxiety every time I shut my eyes. I wish I could turn my feelings off. I don't know how I'm supposed to do life without him.

When it’s more than just “normal grief”
It’s okay to ask for extra support if:
You’re sleeping very little for weeks
Nights feel unbearable or anxiety spikes heavily
You’re feeling persistently low, numb, or overwhelmed
Support can come from a GP, bereavement counselling, or organisations like Cruse Bereavement Support.
