About my Loss:
i lost my 30 year old son 5 years ago and am still at times overwhelmed with his death. my husband at the time did not know how to support me. i just needed to talk, he didn't want to listen (not my son's dad) while i am not as deep in grief as i was the first couple of years
i at times feel the loss as fresh as when it happened. i suppose this is normal but it would be nice to have someone to talk to who could just say, i'm sorry and i understand

Are Any Of You Angry With God?

When my son died from a drug overdose I didn't blame God. (I thought) Rationally, I knew that my son's use of drugs was far removed from the life the Lord would have him lead. But still...I was faithful to pray for God's intervention in my son's life and I believed with all my heart that everything would be okay.

Let me say also that I know that I know, without God in my life I would not have survived Ryan's death. God held me when I couldn't think or speak. When I did not want to wake up… Continue

Hi Connie and thanks for the kind and supportive words. I guess my husband just doesn't know how to provide long-term support and to be honest I don't know how to guide him. He gives me my space and allows me to grieve but it just seems at times that his actions, not words, show impatience with my continued grief. It's hard to explain...
We should not outlive our children and when we do our whole world turns into chaos...I have never felt so alone and overwhelmed in my 53 years. Only another parent grieving parent can identify with our loss and provide words of comfort and empathy.

My Fathers Loss

Many years ago, I lost my father after his battle with colon cancer that later spread to his bones. The grief stayed with me longer than I expected. Ambrosia Behavioral Health helped me work through that loss, understand my emotions, and find healthier ways to cope and move forward. https://www.ambrosiatc.comSee More

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.
