About my Loss:
In the span of 8 months between 2005 and 2006, my dad, grandpa, grandma, and mom passed away, in that order. I was fourteen when my dad had a heart attack, and fifteen by the time my mom died. We were a very close-knit family. My mom struggled with cancer since I was 12 or 13. My dad had a massive heart attack - probably from all the stress and unhealthy coping mechanisms - and died six days later. Then, his parents - they were of a ripe old age, but I think it was the grief that drove them over the edge. They died two weeks apart, a couple of months after my dad. My mom planned all the funerals while getting chemo; not completely on her own, we had supportive family and friends, but it took a toll. She died 8 months after my dad.

I'm 20 now. It's taken me a while to address my feelings - and they've been coming out in weird ways. I've seen quite a few therapists. Right now, I'm between anger and acceptance, it seems; as in I've worked past the anger, and close to acceptance. In any case, I'm finally crying. I'm in a committed relationship and we've been together for about 2 and a half years; I've found myself externalizing a lot of my emotions and being unrealistic about my expectations. I've felt alienated for a long time, and I've never been part of any kind of grief support network.

My mom died 4 months ago

My mom had pulmonary fibrosis. She was sick for a few years. It was funny how when my grandmother smoked, my mom would always say-I’m gonna die from second hand smoke. My mom never smoked. She died from lung disease. Ironic.I was fine at the funeral. Planning. Talking to everyone. I thought u handled it great. Now 4 months later, I’m a mess. Some days I’m perfectly fine, but others I can’t walk down the street without crying. I keep thinking that I haven’t talked to her in a while & I…See More

My dad was the best human I’ve ever known.
