I Feel Abandoned

My friends abandoned be because I grieve about my mom too much. They tell me I'm being selfish and only thinking of myself which isn't true. My ex bestie was like, "Get over it! People die. Why are you grieving over a drug dealer that proved that she didn't want you? She doesn't deserve sympathy for leaving you guys and chosing drugs over you. Let her go already and move on!" It's only been five months and I'm being told to move on. People are getting tired of me posting about her and never liked my posts. My mom wasn't the best mom I admit, but I wanted a loving relationship with her but she wasn't interested and never kept her promises. I want her back! She passed May 10, 2019. Two days before mothers day.

Sorry for your loss. It sounds to me that to some extent you are grieving both the actual loss of your mother & also the loss of the hope that things could somehow come good for both of you with a loving mother, daughter relationship. Clearly that possibility can no longer occur & you hope is extinguished. That really is very sad. I can understand you feel abandoned & clearly your friends have no idea of how it is for you. I'm guessing you feel quite alone. All the best!
