BLUEBELL commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Thank you for answering Brett.
Yes. It is horrible. Not only are my emotions all over the place and it is hard to focus, I am also dizzy, nauseated, shake, feel fatigued, easily get cold and I cry. I tried the antidepressant and then it shot my…"
BLUEBELL commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"To put it out there, I am going through what is called discontinuation syndrome from an antidepressant I was not tolerating. I am one of those that this syndrome is particularly bad. You can look up discontinuation syndrome from an antidepressant if…"

BLUEBELL commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"I have a therapist that listens, calls me back, lets me decide when I want to see him, lets me cry, laugh, sit in silence, talk about the state of the world, encourages me, lets me bring my dog with me, has a pager # for emergencies etc. He was…"

Please tell me how to escape reality. I hate that the harshness of it keeps slapping me in the face.

BLUEBELL commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"Brett
In my opinion, you do not miss your Mom too much. Grief has a timeline of its own. I also want to say that our parents did their best to prepare us to be independent adults, but they did not teach us how to prepare for their death. That we…"
BLUEBELL commented on Julie Dolsey-Weiss's group Lost Without My Mom"God bless you Jenny for sharing your story with me and for your insightful responses. You also reminded me that there is no timeline for grief nor is it linear. Take care.

BLUEBELL commented on Julie Dolsey-Weiss's group Lost Without My Mom"One year later, I am still struggling. It has been become even harder because my sister's husband died suddenly April 9th 2018. I feel physically ill. I can not stand the emotional pain my sister is going through. I can not stand the emotional…"
BLUEBELL commented on Karen's group I miss my Mom!"It has been a year Feb 14th since losing my Mom. I too am struggling , and it has been exacerbated by the recent sudden loss of my dear sister's husband. I have little energy and just kind of make through the day the best I can.
I am sorry for…"

You may be on the other side of the country but I know that a prayer can reach that far. God Bless you.

Bluebell, your post is identical to my feelings and I'm sure others. I try to stay extra busy, distracted so I don't think about my loss. But as you say, grief always catches up. It caught up with me at 2am this morning and I couldn't go back to sleep right away. It caught up with me again while I was sitting in my office at work, it caught up with me again while I'm in my car driving home. My heart is broken too and I don't think anything can fix that.
I hope you find the purpose you are seeking. I haven't found it yet.

Panda said… - Hi bluebell I'm so sorry about what happened. This will be the first Christmas without my mom too but you can get through this. I know it's hard but I know you can get through it. Stay strong. She's watching over you and she's in a better place now out of pain. Hugs <3

- Bluebell could you check my comment wall? The young girl that posted today, panda sounds really distraught and am concerned about her. She commented that she didn't want to be here anymore and said that no one wants her. Not sure what to do since she lives somewhere in Cranston, USA and I live in Canada. Can I contact the administrator of this site? Can't get her words out of my head and am worried about her:(. If you have time can you let me know your thoughts? Thank you
Heather

Andrew posted a blog postLost a great friend.
I recently received news that my best friend passed away from heroin laced with fentanyl at age 31 on jan 10th. I was in shock and felt like i was in a bad dream. I hadn't heard from him in almost 6 months and figured he was out slamming dope because in the past he would tend to avoid me and my mother (who was like a 2nd mom to him) because he didn't want us seeing him strung out and didn't want to ruin our relationship of trust. May 15th, i arrive home from a job interview and check facebook…See More
morgan replied to monty thompson's discussion My wife passed 5 days before christmas in the group Lost My Spouse..."Monty,
I want to let you know that everything you are feeling is normal even though it seems so difficult compared to what we thought we had and what we knew. The death of our spouse is the most difficult thing we will ever face, bar none.…"

CYBERSIS commented on Ginger's blog post No Title"Really sorry for your loss. How awful to lose a child. I guess some people are really uncomfortable with grief and just don't know what to say. I know exactly the loss you feel. I lost my mother in October. I saw her and talked to her…"

I am so deeply saddened that you have had to experience this great loss, something no one should ever have to experience, but sadly do.
I tried my absolute best to keep mum here and safe with me, my siblings and the rest of the family…"
Geraldine Brown left a comment for Taylah B"Hi Taylah,
I think it's amazing that you supported and cared for your mum through her illness. She would have been so grateful to have you by her side - a familiar loving face. Give yourself some credit for being so compassionate and loving.
