Hi Cynthia,

I am deeply sorry for the loss of both your brother and your son. It is horrible how bad things still sometimes seem to happen to good people. I thank you for being brave and sharing your story; it means a lot that you are reaching out. Even just talking about what you are feeling will help you sort through your thoughts, and is so much better than holding it all in.

 I know that your pain is still fresh, and so you may find it impossible to ask any other questions than, "why did this have to happen to them- and to me". It is hard to even consider, but your pain will one day be easier to live with. It will not go away, and you will not forget. But with time, I hope that you will find yourself asking instead "why they were in my life", "what they did for me", "what I learned from their experiences", "how they changed my life".

In this way, they have never really left. They live inside your heart and soul, and their positive and uplifting memories will help you forever.

Don't ever feel alone in this -  we are here for you to talk to, scream to, cry to, whatever you need to do <3

My Fathers Loss

Ambrosia Behavioral Health helped me work through that loss, understand my emotions, and find healthier ways to cope and move forward. https://www.ambrosiatc.comSee More

Traumatic loss of an only child

I started this group so that people who have lost their only child or the only child that remained, as in my case, could come together because I believe people that did have a child or children who now have none have special issues.

Loss of a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide

If you have lost a loved one to alcohol, substance abuse or suicide please share your story or feelings here. Share the love and beauty of the one you lost. Losing someone any of these ways is not natural and can be hard to understand and ask why? I lost my Mother to an overdose 9 years ago. She also suffered from major depression. Her doctor got her hooked on pain medication and she was addicted most of my life. These doctors who were suppose to help her ended up killing her in the end. I also…See More
