Falling Apart
I joined this online community to see what other people are writing. While it does help to write something and have people respond and say encouraging things back to me, or even just reading other people's posts, I have a hard time writing anything back. I want to give people all of those same encouraging words, but I can't. I can't even get my own life together. I've gained a decent amount of weight. I have zero motivation to eat healthy or work out. And I've gotten angry. It's been 9 months since I lost my mom. She'll never see me get married, or be there for any large events in my life. My sister just had her first baby. And now my mom won't ever get to meet her granddaughter, and my niece will never know her grandma, our wonderful mother. I just feel like I've been cheated. I only got 25 years with my mom. She was my best friend. So, while I can't find the right words to say back to all of the wonderful people who post on this site, just know that at least reading everything and knowing people feel the same way, makes a huge difference.

Alexandra, I know what you are going through, because I lost my youngest brother on July 29, 2013. I felt the same way and I'm slowly trying to put my life back together. Yes, grieving is hard, but slowly you will recover. Just remember, you are not alone. Just don't give up, because your love one is happy and he or she is watching over you. Don't disappoint him by
letting your life fall apart.

Thank you for posting this. Everyone on here is so welcoming and I feel like they can really understand my pain. I hold it in too because I don't want to make anyone depressed, you know. My sister won't talk to any of the other siblings. You can find support here it is helping me.

"is griefshare a website like this?"
"Kali
I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal.
Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"
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
