Kind friends and family have pulled me out of several similar slumps recently. I always find myself thinking “I should keep this to myself. I don’t want to burden anyone, and they can’t fix the situation anyway.” But all it really takes to lift me out of even the worst funk is someone who notices and cares.
I. Lost my husband and soulmate last August and it was the worst thing I’ve ever had happen. After months of wrenching sorrow I have felt like this. Love and companionship is what I miss the most.Even though I’m pretty old, I have become open to other people and that has helped.I expect to find a new companion, or at least a friend. Things can and do get better.

I found your comic a few weeks ago, and have read all of them as I know, I really like your style and can appreciate a lot of what happens.

Despondence drained the color from his daybut kindness brought what sorrow took away.
