Loss of my mum

Coping with bereavement
1

I have just lost my mum and it was such shock as 2 months she was fit and healthy and we were out and about all the time. then her body stated shutting down from non alcoholic liver disease that nobody even knew she had including her or the doctors
I realise it’s early days but I’m not sleeping and just cry constantly
People were constantly checking in on me but now they just tell me to stop thinking about it and to take my mind off it
Easier said than done

I’m also supporting my step dad as he’s in his 70’s and can’t do any online things that are needed this day and age

How do people cope
My husband says he thinks I need anti depressants but I don’t want to go down that route

Sorry to hear about your mum what a shock, as you say such early days, of course you cant stop thinking about it. Cry rest and listen to your body give yourself time to process. I am on the antidepressants and they have taken the edge off for the doc didn’t want to prescribe them before three months had passed as grief is such a powerful thing and effects everyone differently. I recognise now that I am three months on that I do feel different.
posting on here really helps rant and let it all out like you said everyone else thinks i should have moved on .
take care there will be someone else along soon .
