My condolences! I would pray a lot and get comfort from reading Bible accounts of the resurrection.

Cry and eat a lot. You will feel better. Don't listen to naysayers who ask you to kill yourself. They are just jealous you are living it..

It's hard finding just the right words to console your pain. I have gone through a lot of what you've been through. Since October 2, 2017 I've lost a LOT! I lost my home, my possessions (all my clothing, business supplies, household supplies, home, car and worst of all my furry babies....9 cats and a mini dachshund) to a fire caused by PG&E. I have no idea when I will receive reimbursement for my losses. I am trying to rebuild my life on $900 a month disability income. During that time I received an email from my daughter telling me that she hates me and that she never will speak to me again and never wants to hear from me again either....she believes that I gave her away to her father and step mother. I lost my daughter and two grand daughters in that statement.
I live every day in constant physical pain and I try as hard as I can to tolerate the physical pain...it doesn't work well. Adding to the physical pain is the emotional pain of losing the furry babies in the flames. I have spent much of the past 18 months trying to forgive myself for not being there for my animals and for not being there to save them from the flames. I finally gave in and started going to see a psychologist to help me feel better about myself. It isn't a magical cure and it isn't happening over night, but little by little I am feeling some better.
You've made the first step towards recovering and hopefully one day feeling joy and happiness again. That is turning to people and asking for help with your pain. It also is realizing that you can't continue to live in a life that is entirely built on a foundation of pain and suffering. We weren't put on earth to totally suffer and feel the pain of loss continually. Yes, we will carry the pain with us for many many years, but we also need to feel the freedom to laugh and feel joy again. If even that laughter and joy is for a short period of time you still need to feel it.
I will be "friending" you and hopefully you will friend me so that we can P.M. each other (P.M. being private messaging each other so we can send each other messages that we don't want others to see on the lot.) You need one person who will be your anchor in the storm of your pain, and I get the feeling that maybe I will be that anchor. At least I volunteer. So, I'll finish this long post and "friend" you and then get busy and get dressed and get my tail in gear.
Off to work making teddy bears, getting dressed, feeding Petey (he is the only cat that survived the fire, and work at getting past the physical pain.
