Members TonyRoberts Posted January 28, 2012 Members Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 On Friday, February 3, the one year anniversary of my only child Travis' death. I feel that every day closer to this anniversary, I begin to have the anxiety and find myself to tear up. I do not believe that many outside of this forum understands how devastating the loss of a child is. I read on another post that I died when my child died, and that is how I feel. I feel like I have no emotions, I have two grandchildren from my son, one who was 9 months when he died, and one who he and his fiance announced 2 days before he passed that she was pregnant, so tomorrow he will be 5 months old. I called in December for an appointment with a psychiatrist because I feel I am at a point where I need some intervention and help, the receptionist set the day for February 3, 2012. I feel like I have been left alone here to try to make it through the world. I always believed my son would be there, I never dreamed I would have to bury him and live the rest of my life grieving over him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Susie_q512 Posted January 28, 2012 Members Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Tony,I am so sorry that you have lost your son and the date of his passing is looming before you. I am new on this journey...I lost my 16 year old daughter September 20, 2011. Most post in the Loss of an Adult Child thread. It is more active,and there are many who are farther along on this journey than we are. Please post there....you will be welcomed and accepted unconditionally. Many will be there to support you and try to lend encouragement to you as you face the days, weeks, months and years that stretch ahead of you. Prayers for peace for you.
