Hello, coping with the loss of my mum & upcoming birthday x

(1/2) > >>

KayHN:
Hello everyone,
We lost my mum at the end of February, it was very quick and completely unexpected and within 48 hours she was gone, it would have been her 55th birthday this coming Saturday and it's all I've been able to think of!

She was my best friend and an amazing help with my little boy, I hate that I feel jealous when i see other daughters with their mum's, when really i wouldn't want their mum anyway I just want mine! I also thought that I wouldn't let the little problems in life get to me because surely one of the worse things to happen has happened, but I actually find the smallest thing gets to me...

My parents has been together since they were 18, so we moved back in with my dad for the 1st couple of months and I've been trying to stay strong since it happened, some days are harder than others....not sure what else to say at this point, thanks for listening xx

Norma:
Sending you a welcome   :hug: Kayhn

How you have decribed how youre feeling is quite normal at your early stage of the journey, youre right of course the worst thing that could happen alreadt has, but your head is so full of your loss, little things do get to you because you arent able to rationalise anything yet, it will get easier to cope but dont be hard on yourself take small steps, xx

KayHN:
Thank you Norma xx I hate that i'm more snappy with my little boy, I put on such a smile at work and seem to be at my worse at home,  i'm just so exhausted all the time... hopefully my old self will slowly return!
 have a good day x

Julie Magson:
Hello Kayhn, sorry to hear you've lost your Mum.  :hearts:
As Norma says your feelings are 'normal' at this stage and the 'little' things in life seem to become huge obstacles. You will experience loads of weird emotions that don't seem to make any sense until you join somewhere like here and then you see that others are going through exactly the same things. Hope you keep on posting and we can help you through the times you need some support.

Sending you a hug.  :hug:  grief is a rollercoaster and often throws unexpected emotions at us. I remember the feelings when seeing others with their dads - really highlighted the loss

Be gentle with yourself, take one day at a time xx
