Sometimes all I want is to be with her. But I have two children and one granddaughter who would be devastated if I killed myself.

I wish marijuana or magic mushrooms were legal in Connecticut. Maybe soon.

Thank you for your compassion.


The one thing that has helped, is picking up a new hobby that requires me to be with other people. It sounded like the worst kind of well-meaning nonsense when someone suggested it, but the more I've read about it, the more sense it has made.

I'm not sure if all your doc has ever done is prescribe anti-depressants. But, obviously, they aren't solely the answer, especially not after something like losing your wife.

In the meantime... have you asked if you can get a medical marijuana card?
