My brother passed away less then a week ago.  It takes everything I have to go on.  Where do you go from here and are our loved ones really "In a better place" or that just something everyone says to make you feel better?  I am dying inside.

I know exactly how you feel.  l lost my father last week and if you look at a new discussion I started I'm getting stressed out whether a heaven/afterlife actually exists. I am a catholic and always stood by my faith but after this painful ordeal I'm starting to have doubts. At night before I go to bed I beg my father to give me a sign that he is still with me spiritually but so far I see  no signs. It scares me so much because I want to see him gain when my time comes but what if after we die there's nothing? I've been so obsessed with this that I have been looking up articles about near death experiences. Just when I find some good articles there are those who debunk it. It's actually scaring me. I want to be with my dad, my mom (when she goes) and all the other loved ones who passed. I want to know that they are fine in heaven  but I don't know. To think my dad is "gone" forever, not coming back tears my apart.

Hello I lost my younger brother June 23rd of this year and I too am catholic and think the same thing, I still find myself crying almost every night wondering why is he gone! What did he do so bad that deserved it. I don't want to question god because everything happens for a reason but I just can't find that reason. He was my only brother I have 2 older sisters but I just miss him so much for the holidays we were all devastated. People say time will heal all pain but I don't think so. People also say that they are in a better place and I really do want to believe it but I also want to believe that he is in a better place ALIVE just not in our universe. I have asked him plenty of times to give me a sign that he is with us and he has! That made me so happy. I also asked him to come in my dream every hear and there and he really has which makes me more happy I just get scared that I will forget his laugh and memories is it possible??
I lost my order brother on 5 November 2012 ... So unfortunately I also know that feeling! Hang in there!

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More

Being the Other Woman/Other Man

This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee More
