It is hard when you feel so un-supported. If you are suicidal then check into the hospital because at least they will be there for you and help you eat and assist you. Sometime when we have no one reliable in our lives we have to seek it out with professionals.
I am going through a similar thing with many recent losses. I have no family and my friends are unreliable losers. At this point I am hiring somenoe to come in and help me clean and feed me lunch. I am only 35, but who cares, I need caretaking too, and for god sakes our community is not set up in a supportive way AT ALL. our culture sets us up for this isolation. It is wrong!
I am also going to go to a grief support group, you might seek out something like that in your area.
