Recovery: Drugs & Therapy?

Help, my family thinks I should be taking some kind of drugs to help me relax & sleep better and say I should try seeing a therapist. I don't want to do either. I'm curious how the majority of grieving spouses recover? I am having a difficult time concentrating & I lose it several times a day but I'm afraid if I start taking drugs I may never quit. This pain will always be with me- I am only half a person now. It has been 3 months since Larry died suddenly from a work related accident- he was 38 yrs. old. This is still unreal.

Your words feel like my own......I lost my husband on the 12.08.2010. I do take sleepers...sorry to say, but they help me get through all the stress of dealing with finances. The decision is ultimately your own....but one pill for one night of sleep is worth it. It helps you put on the coping act, just to get some peace from nosey parkers......All my love hugs and kisses (Kerry UK).
