I know this isn’t really the best subreddit for this, but my fucking god, if people haven’t had a business they do NOT get it. I feel like the light has left my life and I’m dead inside and I don’t know what to do next.
We were open shy of a couple weeks of it being a full year. Coronavirus got us, like others, and we weren’t food so no takeout, etc.
I did everything myself and was the one who showed up. I did not have employees but a solid team of 5 volunteers. I was front desk, customer service, did all the back end stuff, website, social media, blah blah, you know, all the 24/7 about it.
I feel so lost now and everyone in my life (right now, I guess) is extremely fucking tone deaf. I don’t bring it up, I have been applying for some jobs, but I feel like I lost a loved one to a horrible death.
I hope that my language has not made me look a fool, my husband has seen the worst of me trying to process the grief. I know it will pass (and I’m only 29), but I just can’t seem to move on and if someone else can even drop an ounce of knowledge I would appreciate the moment and kindness in being able to relate.
If you are going through this too, I wish I could hug you. I don’t even know you, but I wish I could hold you and relieve you of the awful feelings, even if just for a moment, because it’s incredibly painful. I see you.
