Hi  My son died almost 4 years ago at the age of 20.  Some days I feel like its not such a big deal and others I am overcome with sadness and I feel I want to die along with him.  The sad reality is that its something I will have to live with forever.  The sadness doesnt go away and I miss him everyday.  I spent lots of time helping my other children to grieve and i dont think I did it myself!  I have a hard time going to weddings even today because he was engaged to be married and when i go to a wedding it hits me like a ton of bricks that I will never see him getting married

I am so sorry for the loss of your son. Being a mother, I can't imagine the pain you are going through. Please feel free to message me if you need to talk. My grief is very very new and I'm learning that talk to others has helped a lot. I'm also learning that simply blogging about my pain and thoughts and feelings helps a tremendous amount. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?

Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More
