My mum died and I can't cope with the loss

My mum died of liver cancer 9 months ago. I find each day unbearable and find it harder and harder. I can't sleep at night and break down all the time. I miss her so much and my life feels so empty without her. I have two children and I continue for their sake otherwise I wouldn't have the will to get out of bed each day as I feel so down. 

Does it get easier? because right now, it feels awful.

I keep thinking I need to tell mum this and remember she's gone and breakdown. I see people with their mothers and I envy them.

I feel so alone and helpless. Feel like part of me has died too and I struggle to get back up again.

  • My mum died last year 8 days before my 14th birthday and in two months it will be a year and I honestly just don't see a point in life without her 

  • Hi starling0359,

     

    Sorry to hear about your mum. We have all lost ours but to lose yours when you are so young must be even harder.

    Who do you have supporting  you? Can you talk to friends or a teacher? Do you have your dad and any brothers or sisters?

    Dont forget you have done so well to get through the last 10 months and are making your mum proud. She would want you to carry on and enjoy life, do well at school etc.

    There will be other people on this forum who will also have lost their mum young who will be able to provide some comfort.

    Thinking of you.
