About Me:
My name is shena and I lost my mother in October 30 2002 from epilepsy. Before my mother loss she was my best friend. I could talk to her about anything she made me whole inside.
About my Loss:
After my mother passing I was depressed angry and stopped caring about everything and anyone. I took my anger out on my grandmother and others. My pain was so deep inside that I moved away from my home town an now I live in a state full of people I don't know. I feel so alone. Every time I see a mother and her children together I want to burst into tears because I wish I had my mom back. I feel like god has robbed me of my mom. I will never get the chance to spend my adult hood with her. I have no one to talk to when I am hurting I have to hold it in and it is destroying my life.

    Shena, I am so very sorry to hear about your Mom, but I was really moved by what you said, "since she has passed I have had no one to talk to". I hope you will find it easy to talk to all of us here on www.onlinegriefsupport.com, because talking is such an important part of the healing process.

    Talking can be a helpful release. Following the death of all ten of his children, as well as some other personal tragedies, the ancient patriarch Job said: “My soul certainly feels a loathing toward my life. I will give vent to [Hebrew, “loose”] my concern about myself. I will speak in the bitterness of my soul!” (Job 1:2, 18, 19; 10:1) Job could no longer restrain his concern. He needed to let it loose; he had to “speak.” Similarly, the English dramatist Shakespeare wrote in Macbeth: “Give sorrow words; the grief that does not speak whispers the o’er-fraught heart and bids it break.”

    Please talk to us - I believe it will help you feel a little less pinned to the wall.
