Members dizzydancingway Posted June 24, 2011 Members Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 I'm missing my mom a whole lot too. She died in April also. She was in her 60s, but I'm only 27 and I feel too young to lose a mom. Most of the time I feel strong and am proud of how well I'm doing at such an age, but then I go downhill, like someone just inflated my balloon, like I realize, "oh yeah...this is what it feels like without my mom." Its so easy to turn, too. I can feel so happy and wham, it hits me...that she's gone forever. I know its normal to feel all this, but its also isolating and I feel so empty sometimes, like someone poured her right out of me. The worst is I just keep having flashes of her holding me as a child, taking care of me, loving me. It kills me that that is gone. Its so overwhelming. Anyway, hang in there. I'm in the same boat you are, though I don't have kids. That must be rough. The good news is that all this turmoil we're feeling is normal and time will help heal the wound. It doesn't seem so sometimes but its what everyone who has gone through this says so I'm trying to go with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure this must be a particularly hard time, especially with a newborn baby and other children as well. Have you talked to your doctor about how weak and depressed you are? It may be beneficial for you to think about an antidepressant for a short period. Also, do you have anyone else to talk to? Sisters? Grandmother? Grief counseling may also help, and there are some churches and other faith-based institutions that offer these types of services. We will be here for you, I want you to know that. You can vent, rage, cry, and talk all you want. When you feel up to it, come share with us about your mom. We will be here to listen.ModKonnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
