Hello. Although my mum died 20 months ago, there has not been a day that goes by without me getting upset.
My mum was not just my mother she was my best friend. I found my mum dead. Therefore, when i go to bed at night, i go back to that life changing day and can visually see my mum laid there.
I went to the doctors and he gave me something to help me sleep, but i generally wake up after 3 hours of sleep.
Please advise if anyone else is struggling in the same way.
Thank you
