It takes time, sometimes quite a long time, for deep grief to ease up. But it does. It has to because we have to keep on living, and we can't live on and on with all that pain.
I've been where you are. You think your misery will never end, and you feel guilty at the thought that eventually you may feel better.
But time will heal the intense sad feelings. I still feel sad over the loss of my Sherman - almost a year later. And I have other cats who have helped me with my grief.
It's a long time to feel so bad, but it really isn't so long. I haven't gotten over Mackerel's passing myself.
Before too much longer, the memories of the happy times will become much clearer.
