Members The Fairfam Posted March 3, 2018 Members Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 I joined this site 1/31 in hopes to gain a clear mind... my mother departed from earth on 3/13/2016 after asking me to move to another state with her and she had a freak accident in home & hit her head on a coffee table and the next 6 months she was paralyzed in Veggie state... I had to care for her as she was like an infant and couldn't move. while i found out i was PREGNANT a week after her fall my brother and sister abandoned me with all the responsibilities... they didn't even call... I am a mom of 5 and I suffer EVERYDAY... I don't want to continue living because my heart hurts and I'm just so angry... my therapist told me I'm experiencing the first stages of grief altho it's coming upon 2 years. I started vlogging daily to help distract my pain and mind... it helps but I battle my life daily... not sure what else to do... I am miserable.. nothing is the same anymore. 2 years later I shouldn't still feel like I wanna die Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members reader Posted March 3, 2018 Members Report Share Posted March 3, 2018 Dear Fairfam, I am very sorry for your pain and sorrow. I know its extremely hard after everything you have been through. It takes a long time for our minds to come to terms with our devastating losses. My one therapist told me it could take up to 5 years to accept my new reality. I'm sorry to hear how your brother and sister abandoned you with the responsibility. I know that hurts a lot. Please know you are not alone. Keep taking it moment by moment. Day by day. Keep vlogging and reaching out and connecting with others. I also found these websites helpful. What's Your Grief. The Grief Healing Blog Grief in Common The Grief Recovery Method. Grief Share. Thinking of you. Sending all my thoughts and prayers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tessa Posted March 4, 2018 Members Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 Hi Fairfam, You say nothing is the same anymore. Nothing will be the same anymore for all of us. But it doesn't mean there is no life left. What I did - I turned myself around by looking at the positives. I focused on what I had been given, rather than what had been taken away. I remembered all the good times with my mother. I kept remembering the good. I also got my head into work like your blogging, something to distract my thoughts. It is 7 months for me today. I'm much better now. I'm not great. I still miss my mother but I'm not depressed. The anxiety has gone. There are still good days and bad days but overrall, it's mostly OK days now.
