Pimples, it is odd that when the last parent dies, we feel orphaned - no matter how old we are. It is good that you had a relationship with your mom for the last 15 years, think only of those years and leave the others behind.
I am so sorry that you are grieving all your losses. I lost my parents 14 and 12 years ago. There isn’t a day that I don’t think of them and miss them terribly.
I can tell you this - in 18 months you will be in a different space. You will come out of the sadness/depression/heartbreak. It will not hurt as much and you will find joy again. It just takes time and we can’t rush it along. No words, no pills, no discussions, no distractions will make it better - only livable. But, it will get better.
Much love.
