Sadness and loneliness

I have had too much sadness and now I’m alone.
I have had 2 miscarriages and a daughter pass away and my husband passed away from Covid.
My only immediate family is my youngest daughter and she is amazing but I can’t put my sadness or loneliness on her. There are only 2 of us out of a family that should be 6.
I have no idea of how to move on, how to find peace.

Hi Teresa I’m so sorry for your loss I know exactly how you feel I lost my first daughter Katie some yrs ago I was devastated. Then I lost my mum to. It’s almost a year on the 26 Jan since my Leah was 25:when she died with cancer of the breast then it moved to her liver my world fell apart and I’ve felt lonely and alone ever since I seem to be in my own world but I m hoping things will get a bit more bearable in the future I hope you will find some peace coming on here.
