Loss of a Parent

stardustwolf

Hi, I'm a 28-year-old woman, and I've recently lost my mother.

My mum was always my main carer, and I'm finding it difficult to adjust to life without her. I'm wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience of losing a family member, especially a parent, and how they've coped with it.

This is my first time writing a forum post, and I'm feeling quite nervous about putting myself out there.

    Hello  ,

    I’m so sorry to hear about both your parents, especially having lost your father so young. Although I know that other people lose their parents at my age, I don’t have anyone in my immediate family or friendship group who has been through the same thing, and it’s something I’ve struggled with and spoken about with my bereavement counsellor. It’s comforting to hear from someone who understands that experience, and I really appreciate your kind words of encouragement.
