I had to say goodbye to my 18/19 year old kitty last week, and I'm trying to get back to my life and things as normal but I just want to stare at my phone or play video games. I have Responsibilities and I can see them sliding. I'm trying to be gentle with myself, but little voice inside is saying "do better!" while another is like "can't you just have a week?" Would love to delegate said Responsiblities but not an option unfortunately.
Oh nefara that's so sad! They were a part of your life for so long, and treasured. It's awful that you had to say goodbye and of course you're struggling. It's a form of bereavement and you're allowed to be impacted by it. Do you have much support?
Thank you, I appreciate that. I have emotional support but not "practical" support, if that makes sense. Lots of sympathetic people but no one who can take over doing the things that need to get done unfortunately. So I'm struggling to keep the balls in the air while also understanding I need time.
Yep it's hard mate, I get that. We're here if you need to talk at any point
