Do you still talk to your lost loved ones?

I live in an out of the way place and its just me and my Mum whos not well. I spend a lot of the day keeping her company so at night i spend a lot of time up in the early hours in the lounge where me and Dad spent so much time. I talk to him constantly and say things like  `sorry dad ` for various reasons. He would probably think im mad but its kind helps me get by. 

It is more lonely now here than ever. And if my mum goes it will be like a desert island

    Hi Mattcymru,

    I lost my Dad six months ago and I still talk to him. As soon as I wake up in the morning I say morning dad and at night I always look at his picture and say good night. I also tell him I miss him at several points throughout the day. 

    I think this is perfectly fine. I also love to talk about my Dad as it makes me feel close to him, I never want to not talk about him. 

    Take care.
