Jack11 - Struggling with losing my mum and dad last year

Hello everyone x I lost my mum and dad last year to Cancer. Dad passed in June and mum in July. I'm struggling to come to terms with this. Some days are better than others. I've tried counselling twice but wasn't for me. I feel I need to talk to people in the same situation as me. If anyone feels they might be able to help please get in touch xx

  • Hi jack so sorry to read this, must be awful for you, I lost my mum aged 44 10 years ago and I still struggle to this day, had councelling as well so can relate to you in some way, I don't think you ever come to terms with it, gradually you just learn to live your life around your grief... It's hard , I hope you have other family or friends that you can open up to aswell x

  • Thank you for your reply. It's the guilt that is troubling me the most. I should have done more for mum but I couldn't.  I am lucky that I have a wonderful family and great friends xx
