My therapist said I was going through complicated grief, since there are so many things un-resolved with my mom and I have considered contacting a medium but I don't know if there are any good ones in the south, or if they are worth the time and money. Anybody have any thoughts on this subject?

It really was nice! We had her cremated, and carried her up there for the celebration and some of the patients just cried because they loved her that much. I'm very proud!:) I have always had social anxiety but since she has been gone, it's gotten 100% worse.

It sounds like you had such a special close relationship with your mom. yes you should be proud because she was loved so much. that is the way I feel about my mom too. I am having a social anxiety problem too, I guess these things happen and can't be prevented. I wish we both did not have to go through this!

At first, we had a very rocky relationship..my grandmother/her mom got in the way, she would start stuff to make me be mad at my mom and that happened for a long time, until I started therapy, and she helped me to realize what my grandmother was doing, so mom and I started getting close last year and patching things up. I'm really thankful we did because if we wouldn't have, I probably would feel a lot worse than I already do. I hate the anxiety, it has caused me to change a lot of lifestyle activities.

Does meditation work for you? I am training to do Ortho-bionomy. If you could find a practitioner in your area, that may be helpful as well.

Jennifer I am so glad you were able to experience that. It feels good right down to your core, doesn't it.

I haven't tried meditation yet, I can't seem to get my mind to stop racing to be able to relax..I'd love to be able to do it though.

It really did. Someone that she worked with is on my facebook friend's list and when I post something about mom, she always shares it, talking about how much she misses her. Makes me smile, knowing that she was loved at work!

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
