Hi I have very recently lost my beautiful 39 year old daughter and I am constantly questioning the way in which I am grieving. I cannot understand why I feel like this. I miss her more than words can say. I feel guilty when I do normal everyday things or if someone tries to make me laugh. I have days when I feel numb and these are the days I question myself and I feel guilty about feeling like this.
Hello @Clairebear1984,
I’m part of the Online Community team and I can see that you are new to the community - I’d like to thank you for bravely starting this thread and sharing how you are feeling. I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your daughter and the grief you’re feeling. Most community members have sadly experienced the death of a loved one and so will understand some of what you are going through.
I’m sure someone will be along to offer their support, but I wanted to share a few Sue Ryder resources with you that might be helpful.
