I lost my mum on the 13th January this year and feel so lost . I dont understand why I keep crying , bursts of anger . I feel like I dont want to be where I live as I moved here to be close to mum . I cant concentrate, sleep is poor , eating is poor. I just want to pack a bag and leave .

Hello, I am so sorry for your loss. What you are feeling is all normal stages of grief. Please do not be hard on yourself, what you are going through is traumatic enough. I lost my mom Dec 2024 and I too still go through various waves of grief. Be kinder to yourself, anger is a natural reaction as is having crying outbursts when you least expect it. But you are still so early in this journey, it is still very raw. Do you have people to talk to, if so please do, take support where possible and don’t rush into any decisions. This is all part of trying to learn a new way of living without them. It’s a tough journey, but with support from this group and/or others close to you, you will make it. Take care.

I am new on here , I lost my mum on the 16th January this year & I feel the same way , I can’t control how I feel , I am back at work trying to get some normality back & also trying to be there for my dad , but it’s hard , I cry everyday & I find it hard explaining how I feel, my husband says he can’t understand why am crumbling now when I was strong for the 5 weeks she was in hospital when she died & the funeral, he seems to think I should be getting on with things better now , I cry alone most days because it’s easier to do that than explaining my feelings, I really miss my mum it’s so hard trying to move on with out her

Hi everyone, I’m so sorry to hear about you all losing your mum, I also lost my mum back in 2020.
I know how hard it is to cope with the grief of losing your mum, I just wanted to say everything that you are feeling is completely normal.
Please feel free to reach out if you need to. The thing with grief it can be very lonely. It helps supporting each other.
Take care x
