[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom died 4 weeks ago and the pain of her loss is so strong. I'm such a strange mixture of emotion...sad, angry, depressed, nostalgic. It's just exhausting. It feels good to know that I'm not alone.[/quote] I'm so sorry for your loss. My mom died 10 years ago and I still cry sometimes and have moments where it seems like too much to bear. But these moments pass. The first year is so hard and I feel for you. PLEASE ignore the trolls that tell you that you need to get over it!!! Grief is the price of love and you never get over it. You just find a way to live with the loss and keep her memory in your life in a way that gives you comfort. The grief evolves and changes from year to year. For the first little while, though, you will be in survival mode. That is okay. I also grieve in a different way than my sister does. That is okay, too. Check out Hope Edelman's book "Motherless Mothers" when you feel up to it. It was helpful to me.[/quote]
