Hi @Ginaladybird
Welcome to this forum, & sorry to hear your struggling with the losses of your parents. You are not alone, I have found there are always people here to talk to, & everyone on this forum is going through their own grief journey too. Loosing a parent is heartbreaking, I know when my mom passed, I felt I had lost my safety net, she was the one person I could run to for support or protection, 
feeling the empty spaces can be tough, but this is your grief journey, you do whatever works best for you, for some people taking a walk helps, some people have made memory boxes or a scrapbook of their loved ones, some people write a diary, (including me, I draw mind maps, I find it helpful to see all my thoughts on paper,) I have also written letters to people that have passed, which can be very therapeutic.
Sending hugs of support.
