Hello all
I lost mum 7 weeks ago
This week has been so bad.
Feel very low & so upset.
Probably the worst I’ve felt.
Can’t bare it that I can’t talk to her.
I’m waking up & my stomach is in knots…
This grief process is just awful isn’t it….
It’s also my dads birthday today which is going to be tough with out mum bring around…
Just want this grief feeling to go way as it’s exhausting me…
Love to all who are feeling the same & sorry we are in the place that none of us want to be in…

Thank you for sharing and sorry for your loss.
Mum died 4 weeks ago on Monday. I get scared when I read people further along saying it gets worse, but then I know from close friends that it does get better so try to hold on to that thought.
I have the same feeling about it being exhausting and wanting to go away, but then if I even have a small window in a day that I feel numb or less distressed I feel like I am letting her down and don’t want to lose that connection.

Sending love & thiughts.
Thsnks for your thoughts.
It’s so tough loosing are Mums isn’t it…
I do find that writing thoughts down here helps and having people respond dose help a little but am so aware that we are all so different in are grief journey.
Live and thoughts and always hear to help / respond if you find it helpful.

It is so nuanced, I have two siblings and all our relationships with mum were unique so even among the three of us we are grieving differently.
But we all share them same pain of a world without our mums. Thank you Will, I only joined yesterday but have found this space helpful already. Kind people united by grief.
