Losing both parents

Hello I’m a 44 year old female and lost my mum in March and before I could come to terms with this my dad passed away unexpectedly in July. I feel utterly lost, I went straight back to work, I don’t know how to cope with my sadness.

I lost my mum unexpectedly in January and my dad almost 4 years ago. I went straight back to work as it took my mind off everything. It must be awful losing both parents in the same year. I have just finished 8 bereavement counselling sessions which has helped but I still struggle quite a lot with my emotions. I also lost my cat to a brain tumor in July which didn’t help.

Thank you today seems to have been a particularly hard day. First time I have sought some advice, can’t get out of my sad empty mood.
