When I came home from work yesterday, I got into an awful mood. I started crying and thinking that I don't want to go on and that I'd like to follow my mom and go away with her.

I couldn't stop these thoughts and it was torture. Now I think I haven't got to the point where I'm suicidal, I don't really want to die, so why do I get like that?

Has anyone gone through the same thing?

Mom wouldn't want me to feel like this. She was always a fighter and kept going no matter what. She was alone in life at times, too... and she pulled through. I wish I were more like her but sometimes the loneliness seems more than I can handle.

Oh yes I have felt the same way with losing my dad. I really don't want to die either we just want the pain to stop. You are not alone in your feelings. God Bless you.

I completely understand how your feeling. I feel like I don't want to go on and yet I'm not suicidal. My mom fought through many difficult time and I want to be like her but I just don't feel like I have her strength. I know that seeing me this way would make her very sad but I miss her so very much. And I feel very alone.

Melissa, yep I had a day like that...1 day and then something..perhaps my mom talking to me from heaven..told me that my mom like yours, had been through so much, and yet never gave up and would never give up and most definitely would not want me giving up.  I think it is normal sometimes to feel the way you did.  I guess in order to overcome the loneliness you have to make sure you surround yourself with people.  Come on here when you feel lonely and chat or at least journal or go to the Groww grief boards-there is always someone on the chat there who will listen and talk.
