Yesterday was a hard day, miss my mum so much it hurts and then today whilst walking the dog down near the river, i saw the police pulling out a body. I thinking where’s my mum when i want her to talk to.

Jeanniew, how sad, whether accident or intentional. My niece took her own life years ago, and I’ve never heard my brother talk about it - until just after my wife died last month. I wish he had done before now.
I talk to Mary every day, for half an hour to an hour, at her graveside. I also talked to her from home for the first time today. I may not get a verbal answer but I do find just telling her about things and how I’m feeling, seems to share the burden. I also play songs and read her daily devotions passages daily. I’ve even apologised to her for things I’ve said and done in the past that weren’t the best things I could have done at the time. I did that just yesterday, and today, and feel so much better for that.
So I’d say talk to her as if she was in the room, chat away, as if she was listening intently.
Much love, M

It’s not the time of year that makes people think of suicide it’s people. People are very selfish and just don’t care, and I think that plays on the person’s mind. It such a cruel world these days.

Missing my mum too. Went to my brother & his family for Christmas, it suddenly hit me when we sat down for lunch and there were only 4 chairs instead of 5. Didn’t let it show that I was upset as didn’t want to ruin the day for everyone else. Feeling really down now I’m at home on my own. Big hug to anyone else finding it tough xx

Shame it’s virtual though, it’s shocking to think there’s no actual groups or activities to help people.

I do try and talk to mum but sometimes i fund it hard and very upsetting.
I know your upset, I visited mum on her birthday and a week later, I lost mum in August in 23 and I’m still getting tearful. I’m thinking this world can’t be real, it can’t be. It’s such a cruel world!

I have to agree on that one with you.
Are they narcissistic ?
Are they egotistic ?
Are they so selfish and don’t want to know.
Thats what i am experiencing in this cruel world from these sort of characters that i find in my family and from some people.
But their are some lovely people out there, but a very small majority.
