Hi, My husband 52 just died of from the widow maker. He never had any symptoms. He did smoke, but other than that he was not overweightand I miss him terribly. Can a spouse grieve so much they can die from a broken heart?Mine feels like it is going to explode. I started having anxiety attacks and panic attacks
It is sad to hear that. My sympathies are with you. The anxiety and panic symptoms are normal bereavement reaction after such a huge loss. I would advise you to keep yourself strong. Develop strength to face the situation. Start visiting friends, social meetings and whatever you can to divert your attention from there. I know its easier said than done, but reality has to be faced. Do not take medications for depression at present. Just strengthen your coping power. Thanks.
