So alone.

I've been feeling worse. It's been over two weeks. Yesterday all I did was cry. I do not have anyone of my own. My brother is the only one left and he always winds up making me feel bad. No one in his family, his wife, my niece or his Mother In Law has reached out to me since the funeral. I feel abandoned. I did not expect them to be my new family but I thought they would care. Offer to help in some way. Have me over...they live down the street. It hurts. I feel like they are mad at me. Like I dîd something wrong. I want to tell someone about it. But there îs no ône to tell.

I feel like I want someone to take care of me. I knôw that sounds childish but I guess that's what my Mom would do. She'd hold me. No one is here just to hold me as I cry. I feel so alone, and childish for expecting such things. Like ît's week.

I went to a therapy group but even thére no one lets me get it out. It's all about skill building and all I want is someone to comfort me. Someone to talk to as long as I want. I want my Mom.

Lots of virtual hugs!

Maybe see about finding a different therapy group to see if it is a better fit. The crying and everything else is normal. I have support of my family and I still feel so alone. I actually got out one of my Mom's stuffed bunnies (my sister made it for her) and sat down and hugged it a while. Just needed the extra hug. Do you have anything around you that you can hug, even a pillow?

Hugs again!

Hi sue.
I know what you mean when you say you feel lonely but please take some form of solace in knowing that you're not alone. i lost my mom this summer and have been struggling with my own loneliness but it's helped me to read others stories here , to know these feelings are felt by so many others. I want you to know that as I am writing this I am sending you a all the good vibes I can. If you ever want to just put it all down, I will listen or read whatever you need to be heard. I hope you find some small peace in this.

I understand what you are going through.  I lost my husband about a month ago. He was estranged from his family but when he was ill I thought his family would be there for him and be supportive of me.  I was so wrong to think that they would help us.  They live very close by as well but there has been nothing from them.  So I understand what you are going through.  Sorry for your loss.

Thank you. I'm sorry for your loss. That's so sad that they could not let go of their differences even after he was sick. It does hurt. I don't understand it.

Sue,

The link below takes you to an article that talks about grieving. There are also other articles there that discuss death itself.

I hope the information at least helps a little bit .

I am so sorry for your pain and suffering.

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
