Please accept my condolences on your loss. ((((HUGS))))

I think I was very fortunate to stay on a relatively even keel when my husband died last summer. I did get somewhat depressed when fall arrived, but that's not unusual for me as I have SAD. What you have to do to get through a loss is be gentle with yourself; don't expect yourself to "get over it" within a certain amount of time---you need time to grieve, and one of the biggest mistakes we Americans make is putting grief away too soon.

And remember, even if depression is situational, it still deserves to be treated, whether through medication or therapy...or both.

God bless you. Take care of yourself.
