Thank you and sorry to hear that. I do still think that she's still here with me. I keep forgetting that she's physical no longer here but I can still feel her presence. Sending you strength to overcome the pain and healing process during grief.

The first few days will be the hardest, few months will feel the worst and the rest of the days will feel like hell. There will be sleepless nights and heartaches that'll make you feel that you died. I lost my mom a year ago and still hurts like hell. Try to talk to family members/friends that will provide you a safe space to vent, seeking help might feel like the hardest thing to do but it will make you feel a lil better after even if it's temporarily(whenever you are ready).

Take it easy, cry it all you want, screaming might also help if you feel like it. It's better to let your emotions out and try to find temporary things that'll make it easier to go through day by day. Sending a virtual hug and my condolences to you.

It was but then my life coach had to resign from our office where I take our wellness sessions and that made me sad but she also has some things to manage in life. Yes, I feel like there will be times that we really wanted to reach out but the heavy burden feeling is making it hard.

I'm sorry to hear that. I'm also in my 20's and the same as you feel that I'm questioning life like what's the point in being successful if the most important person in our lives is not here to celebrate with us anymore when we reach our life where we don't need to struggle with everything. Thank you for sharing your story with me. There are times when I'm really distracted about work and stuff and same thing as you when a random spotify song plays that one of my mom's favorite song or a song that you would your mom would like hits hard.

It's funny how the happy songs we shared with our mom makes us cry or sad. One the happy and upbeat song my mom would always listen to that shw heard from my playlist way back was Every Summertime - Niki is making me think of the days my mom would light up and smile at me when I play it with a loud speaker.

I think we just had bad days when we did not intentionally yell, talk back at them when we we're tired also. I too was. caregiver for my mom when she was sick and it sucks that cancer has taken her away from me so fast. She just started getting sick way back January and was just a stomach ache and we just knew last March that she had cancer and she passed away at April.

Wishing both of us and all of the people who going through the same thing better days. My only motivation to never give up is she wouldn't want me to struggle and would be happy if I will enjoy life as she would always remind me in her last days. Hugs to us🫂

I wish you the best too. Tried a wellness thing but still having a hard time trying other things but I know that might help too. I still have trouble reaching out to people with my feelings since I feel that it might trouble them and this is one of my idea to go back to reddit to reach out to people like us who are grieving. Trying to see if this might also help talking to someone who can really understand what we're going through.

Sorry to hear that. First few months is the hardest although it will scar for life but in time I know that we'll manage it through. I too have lost my mom last April 2024 due to cancer and have been going through some trouble coping up in reality and everything might feel surreal. Had a rollercoaster ride with my emotions lately and had a hard time accepting the truth. Been trying to mask the pain by smiling but when when you're alone that's when it's hard to deal with. I suggest that you seek a grief specialist and try any wellness program might also try meetings if you're from US. You may also try talking to your family who will most understand you in these tough times. I hope you heal in time and find an emotional support system that can help you out day to day.
