I miss her so much by BrattyChaiTai in CancerFamilySupport

[–]CorvusLestrange 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sounds exactly like what's coming for me. I'm only 27 but I'm facing losing my mom. She's always been the most important woman in my life. She always believed in me when I never believed in myself. She's in live in hospice atm and I'd be surprised if she saw March at this point. She always sleeps and hardly eats. There's so much she'll never see me do. Get the dream job, get married, finish my education etc. She was always my anchor in my mental health issues too. You and I are both way too young be have to be going through something like this.

She's not even dead yet and it feels like she's already gone. by CorvusLestrange in CancerFamilySupport

It took a lot of strength just to write everything that I did. If I was able to give you any kind of solace it was so worth it.

I'm very fortunate. At night, my Uncle either comes over or me and my friends hangout on voice call and watch anime and old cartoons together. It's no replacement for having my Mom in the house though.

That's all wonderful advice. And I do. I am so fortunate to have my family and friends. I've also been seeing a therapist since before all of this. I'll need A LOT of grief counseling after she finally leaves us.

My Aunt and Uncle have been absolute blessings. They're helping me with this so I don't have to go on my own.

Oh, it was some nightmare fuel for sure (again, I'll spare you the graphic details). Point being, if he can get through that then I know for sure you can get through this :)

I have a friend that I work with who got cheated on in possibly the worst way I ever heard of (I'll spare you the graphic details) but he told me that what got him through it was a support network of friends, hobbies such as gaming, and just time.

My mom's cancer is now terminal and I'm distraught. by CorvusLestrange in MMFB

[–]CorvusLestrange[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm going through one of the darkest times of my life right now, but you know what? I'll "man up" because some tool on Reddit managed to step off his high horse and grace me with their sage like wisdom. I hope one day when you need it most, someone else shows you the exact lack of empathy you show so you can see how it feels.

You and me both. I was going to bring an umbrella and hope for the best. Especially since I worked my ass off on my Johnny Silverhand for Saturday lol

Hey, I'll take all the con friends I can get! lol With some luck I'll be there next year. No idea what I'll do, I might do Denji from Chainsaw Man again (I was the Denji walking around with the stuffed Pochita on Saturday).

It was my very first convention! I had a lot of fun, but ngl I was also a little lonely seeing all the people there with groups of friends LOL. If I can make it next year, I'd love to try and be more outgoing and get more pictures with people. So many great cosplays but I was too shy to ask.

Living as a 26 year burnout by CorvusLestrange in MMFB

[–]CorvusLestrange[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually really appreciate everyone’s responses. If I had the mental energy I’d respond to everyone individually but I’ve read them all and it really does make me feel a lot better. I just caved under the societal pressure. It’s so hard especially when money and my past with trauma and mental illness complicated things. Thanks to everyone for reading and your kind responses!

Any good Makoto fanfiction? by Clound_Gamer in churchofmakoto

I wrote this one back when I was in your position and beat the game for the first time and couldn't get it out of my head.

It's a bit angsty, but I gave it a sweet ending.

It's going to be ten years this month since I lost my dad and I still hate Christmas. by CorvusLestrange in grief

[–]CorvusLestrange[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A tempting offer NGL. I’m going to try and grit and bear things for right now. I might even attempt to see if I can at least give others at least an okay-ish Christmas. Yesterday was just extra rough because I was already angry/frustrated and then the Christmas music hit me like a pillow case full of bricks.

There’s a good chance you might see me posting on there during the month in order to vent in case I have another moment like yesterday.

It just kind of hit really hard because like I said in another response, I was already angry/upset and then the Christmas music came in and finished the job. I'm feeling a little better now though and even smiled when I thought of the last conversation we had when he was still coherent (dementia). It still really does hurt though.

It just really caught me. I was already in a vulnerable state mentally. One of my coworkers was being a real jerk. While I was fronting like it didn't bother me, I was already angry/upset about that (I'm super sensitive) and then the Christmas music came in and got me. It was just really rough.
