[quote=Anonymous]I am in the same situation (lost both parents in my early 20s) and as another poster said, it has impacted my whole life in that I have felt unstable ever since and don’t open myself up to people nor do I feel truly known by anyone. I am married with kids and am sure this has impacted my relationship with them although not consciously. I did attend therapy for about 5 years after the birth of my first child (which triggered regrief about my parents not being here, in particular my mom), and I didn’t find it super helpful. I, too, read and appreciated Motherless Daughters, although the parts I connected best to were others’ expressions of continuing grief as to their loss, so I have never been sure if the book helped me other than I felt less alone.
