Life is so dark without my mum.

I'm finding it so difficult to adjust to life. It's been around 6 weeks since my mum died, I know it's still very early in the grieving process. But it's just starting to hit and it's already unbereable! It seems as though each day gets harder than the last. The fact that no one around me understands is also very difficult, I feel as though I can't relate to anyone my age anymore. No one loses their mum at 20! I was always so protective about my mum, now that she's gone I feel so lost. Every time it hits I just feel like I'll never be happy again, I already feel the sadness weighing me down all the time, everyday. My mum was the light in my life, I'm heartbroken.
