It’s been 3 years since my mum passed. 3 long but fast years, if that makes sense.
I have currently been struggling the last 3-4 months and I think it all boils down to me missing my mum . I think grief has changed me and my characteristics have altered.
When my mum passed I was 31 and at the time my daughters were 4 and 7. I held everything together for my girls and I think I have buried feelings ever so deep to carry on for my girls. Time has passed and the closet i have hid all my emotions in is starting to break open i suppose.
I have (over the last few months) lost a lot of confidence and feel so insecure and it’s emotions I haven’t really dealt with before I. My life.
I feel insecure in myself and relationship.
But I think the bigger picture is down to mu unresolved grief and how much i miss my mum . Feel little better getting that off my chest. Xx
I’m so sorry to hear about your mum. Grief is such a life-changing thing. Thank you for sharing how you’re feeling here - I’m glad it made you feel a little better.
I just wanted you to know that you have been heard, and are not alone. I’m sure someone will be along to share their thoughts, too.
Hi maybe it would help to ask for some grief counselling to help you process everything.
I think that grief is way more powerful than anyone imagines and it does change your outlook on life.
Keep posting if nothing else it will show you that you are very much not alone there are good people on here.
Hello ,
I lost my Mum 2yrs ago this Sept & I feel like you too, that I have hidden my grief. Now I have retired & have time on my hands, live alone, my thoughts, sadness are surfacing.
I know how you feel. We hold it together for others.
Counselling maybe a good idea to help process & open up these feelings.
Sending you my regards , king thoughts.
