It has been 8 years since losing mum still devastated

So it has been 8 years since I lost my mum but I still hurt so badly. I feel very lonely and don’t really know how to do “life” I am 24 and feel under so much pressure and I have no guidence all older family members have let me down and are no longer in my life. She was my best friend and the most amazing mum she was only 37 herself when she died. I needed more years with her she didn’t teach me enough. I function I work I have a flat I have a loving partner but that is it that’s my little bubble. I miss her so much I can feel the pain in my chest where I long to just hear her voice or for her to stroke my hair or to just tell me everything will be ok. Since the day she left this world life has never been the same and it doesn’t matter how I make my life the dark cloud never leaves. My life has been hectic since my mum died and I feel now is the time I am missing the gap more. This is the time where I really truly need her and I need help and love and help . It’s so sad I do really wish I had never been born.
