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.

  • I know exactly how your feeling .

    I lost my mum 13 years ago . I was 22 and she was only 47. It gets easier to get up in the morning and live life but the pain doesn't ease. 
    you will stop counting how many days she's been gone and replaying the day she passed or the days beforehand . That will fade and you will be able to remember her in happier times. 
    i still break down a lot even now but my mum didn't fight with everything she had to beat cancer for me to give up and that keeps me going ,

     

    you will get to a point where you are able to breathe easier and will wake up one day when it's not the first thing u think of .
