My beautiful mum passed away 3 months ago, I feel like I have a great support,however my dad&my younger brother have a lot too but not many as close to them as I have. and splitting myself to try to fix everything for both of them whilst looking after myself is proving hard:( my brother I just feel worried I've neglected him when it comes to talking about mum as he keeps it all to himself and seems to be doing ok. My dad i worry about most as he struggled with depression for years before my mum had cancer. When my mum was ill for a year it sorted out my dads depression to an extent as he had a reason to get out of bed and do things to help our family through this. He did a great job however I knew I would be forever stressed that he would go back to his old ways, he's not as bad with depression since my mum has gone but grief is a diff story. he will cook,clean and occasionally see his brothers, however I do most of the cooking taking over mum as she was the only cook of the family. But he's not willing to message people back or see them as much as everyone wants him to he just sleeps and walks the dog. I feel guilty as I spend a lot of time with my boyfriend however after 3 years he's my support system after my family& to look after my mental health I know I need to spend time with him too. But I would love in time for my dad to find new joys in life and see that there is a future for not just his kids but him. I moved back home a few months before my mums passing but will eventually move out again, except I'm dreading to ever make that move knowing my dad will struggle even more. I'm 22 for reference.
