Just the thought of holidays coming make me sad, because he will not be here. It's so hard to believe that he's gone. I keep thinking, randomly, things about him and i don't even remember that he's not here anymore, but then i do and it sends a wave of shocking pain and sadness over me. I hate this... I just want to be better again, but I'd feel bad if i got over it, i know i would. But what else can I do? I know I'll have to be OK again someday... I just don't want it to be now. And the holidays are going to be hard, Thanksgiving and Christmas, because of going up to visit Kenny and his family. But it'll all be different, because I'll be alone. Never, for big holidays like this, have I ever been without him to come with me. And thinking that he wont be here this year just makes me feel worse. I don't know how I'm going to stand it...

I am thinking I will find a homeless shelter and volunteer on Thanksgiving and Christmas. Keep busy helping out wherever I am needed. I dont think I can do a regular celebration this year.

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
