We all cope with grief differently, in our own ways. I lost my husband November 16, 2010.  As the first year anniversary gets closer, I am having a harder time.  I'm also on antidepressants.    I lost my mother in August this year. Your father and brother are coping the way they can, maybe they keep their grief inside.  It's okay to be sad and miss your mother; she was and is very special to you.  Since you can't visit her grave as much as you'd like, is there a way you can find a quiet place near your home that you can go and grieve and talk to her?  It could be your own private memorial to her.  I don't know what you believe, but I find comfort that my husband and mother are watching over us and I still feel their love.

 

Mothers are so special, someone told me that we don't lose our mothers because they are always in our hearts.
