Hi I’m so sorry for the loss of your mother, I was the same my dad was absent so it was me and mam for a very long time, if you are really struggling which we all are at some point on this forum, have you tried going to your gp or some sort of counselling, i lost my husband 2 months ago and I am struggling also so I am trying counselling this week. When we are in this grief pain it’s worth trying gp or counselling to hopefully help us cope, everyone is different in there grief you can only take 1 day at a time but i do hope you can get some help and please keep posting on this site because there are some wonderful caring people on here
Sending you hugs
Jean

hi! thank you so much for your words. ill definitely speak to my gp about it
I lost my mam in June and am still battling to come to terms with it. My GP gave me some meds to try to help because I’m having problems sleeping, but I’m not taking them. I’ll look into some counselling at some point if things don’t improve, but at the moment I am trying to do one day at a time. I still cry every day and miss her terribly. I lost my dad when I was 27, so only had my mam from then, and we were very close.
I’m sorry I don’t have answers for you. I just want you to know you aren’t alone feeling the way you do xx
