I'm seriously considering attempting to attend Camp Widow in San Diego the weekend of August 6th. It is a gathering of widows (and widowers) with a number of speakers and presentations, and the opportunity to meet other people who are in the same place I am, or who have been in this place and gotten through it. I already get a lot of .... comfort

You know ... I think that actually really does sound like a good idea! *hugs*

It is scary, but I think a good idea. I'm also very afraid of meeting new people (as I think you know), but I really benefited from my grief counseling group.

No one will ever feel exactly what you feel, but there will be enough common ground that you shouldn't feel out of place. A nice nurturing environment without the pressure to be "over it," might be exactly what you need.
