Yes.
1. The harrassment at work
2. Covid (although I liked shifting to working from home)
3. Palliative care for my cat who passed in April.
4. Was proposed as part of a team for a prospective project and we weren't selected. Would have been a nice way to get into a new company and project.
5. Losing my job mid may
6. Widowversary soon after
7. Having to move out of my current home B to rent it out and leave my amazing neighbors. Procrastinating on moving back to home A.
8. Doing it all alone.
The bits of light that shine through the dark come from those who provide support via text, phone, fb messenger and IG chat.
If so, why, exactly is it that for you?
How has it changed your life or plans and/or what is the worst part of it?
Have you had worse years?
Have you found any unexpected good in it (silver lining)?
Etc.
Besides on a lighter note - if this is Lucifer I'm ok with it....
For me, I feel like 2016 was revving up for the multiple losses to come. Cat, husband, job, dog in 2017. Ghosting family. And then subsequent losses hurt more because now I was alone.This question has been asked for each year since 2016 and a whole bunch of posters answered "yes" for each year. It's been crappy since 2016 for various reasons.

Wait, what about MY name? Just add a line for my name; this is how you legally spell it: P-I-N-T-O_B-E-A-NThat was an excruciating time for you and I respect the way you navigated through it all to find a way to survive. I know it wasn't easy. Because of what you shared after your husband died, I had conversations with mine about getting both our names on documents and making sure our affairs are in order and I made him read your posts so he could gain understanding about my concerns. Hugs to you always.
