Belinda, don't let anyone call you crazy...your are grieving and those who have not experienced it have no clue.  I'm a full time student studying Alcohol and Drug counseling.  18 years since I had a drink.  have you thought of going to alanon for children of alcoholics?  it really helps you understand where your mom was coming from.  It is a disease and one that is very strong.  You are right, none of us will ever be the same.  Just keep taking it day by day and you will grow into a stronger woman.

My friend Tyler didn't exactly die to drugs, but his death was kind of drug related. He lost his life to the "choking game." I guess it was a way for him to get "high," since he no longer had drugs.. And he had gotten into that situation by getting mixed up with the wrong crowd and doing drugs.
And I totally agree with Deborah; don't let anyone say that you are crazy. You are grieving the loss of your sister and your mother. Anyone who calls you crazy just doesn't understand. God bless.

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

"Hi Rosa, First, I am so sorry for the loss of your grandmother. Losing someone you love only two days ago is incredibly painful, and it’s understandable that you’re feeling unsure about what to do right now. Personally, I don’t…"
