It's almost 3 months since I lost my Mom. I 've been through a lot.  I keep thinking i should be better now. There's no one there saying if you need anything let me know etc. So it gives my the feeling i should be able to handle this now. I've had times when I did feel better. Like I can handle this. But then I get overwhelmed and have no one to turn to. Family I thought would be there to lean on aren't there. I have no one else. On top of that I have all of these financial things to deal with. I have all of these new responsibilities and I get so forgetful sometimes I forget what I was supposed to do and names or that I even made an appointment. Then I feel like people will get mad at me for not keeping up with things. But I honestly can't remember and am foggy a lot of the time. I also feel like I should be over that. I have a chronic illness which makes everything harder.Just feeling so bad for failing. But I'm doing so much. I miss my Mom so much. She was my best friend. My support.

I am also at the same time frame and feeling exactly the same as you. I cant offer any advice but can tell you that you  explained  my life and feelings to a T. So I guess this is the new normal for people like us. Hang in there you are not alone. One day at a time. Good luck friend.

Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?

Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More
