It’s been almost 6 weeks since I lost my wonderful Mum and it’s getting harder to deal with.
I find I can almost function during the daytime and “put on a brave face” but inside I feel like I’m dying. I don’t feel I can talk to family before that have their own lives, and I think because I’ve been covering up how I feel so well, they think I’m coping. But I’m not and I don’t know what to do.
I wake up every morning and for a few minutes I almost forget and life feels normal again. Then it hits me and the tears come, sometimes great gulping sobs and other times just gentle tears.
I’m sorry to moan on but I just wondered if any out there is feeling the same (it’s a physical pain sometimes) and how they are coping. I’m on my own and I think that’s making it even worse.
Sending love and hugs to anyone who is going through the same thing
So so sorry. I don’t know what to say. I lost my mum 3 years ago and I still feel so empty and alone. The pain is unbearable without her. I am lost still and not coping. I feel like I am living and existing because I have to, not because I want to. I go on because I know mum would want me to love and be happy. I just hate life without her. I never knew it was possible to miss someone so much. My mum was my everything, we did everything together. I am trying my hardest to live, do things, which I do but I’m not happy and I know my mum would hate that. All I know is to take it one day at a time. Sending hugs
When will it get better was the question. Seems like it takes a long time or will never get better. But looking back it is not quite three years it isn’t as bad as it was but not completely used to it. I didn’t expect to before three years because it isn’t only my husband lost so kno
Sorry. I don’t understand your reply or if you are replying to me or the original poster. The point of my reply is that it’s not better for me 3 years on. I have waves and really bad spots and I’m getting on with life but no, it doesn’t, it’s always there
Hi, I’m going through the exact same thing. My lovely mum passed away a week ago today so sudden and unexpected. I can’t eat or sleep. Iv got this heavy weight in my stomach that won’t go . I’m crying non stop and it feels like my heart is breaking I can’t get my head around that I’m never going to see her again. You are not alone in this x
I do not understand a lot of what other people say either because we are all different. I do not understand why it is that in mid sentence this feed drops off and I can’t correct it.
