@Catsmart - I don't know your story (and not asking), but losing someone you love is tough, and some days are inevitably much harder than others. Go easy on yourself. It's okay to cry. Sending you a hug x

Thank you hug back

I find crying can be something of a relief. I hope it is a little bit of a relief to you too, @Catsmart. 🩷

It’s normal. It’s good to let it all out ❤️

Arlanymor · 23/04/2025 17:21

Grief comes in waves doesn't it? Let it all out. I bet you're a nicer crier than me - I go all red and tomatoey and puffy.

This. I ugly cried to my boss during a general catch up. I was triggered by ‘how are you today?’ The flood gates opened. You’re human and experiencing grief and loss, it happens. Sending love x

It's fine to cry. It can be triggered by all sorts of daft things that catch you unawares. I hope you will soon feel stronger. Have a virtual hug from an old bloke!
