How can I explain to my husband that I'm still grieving the death of my mother?

My mother just died a week ago. But my husband is being a jerk adding into my burden. How can I make him understand that I am still mourning my mother’s death? 😢😞🧐

Wow I can't imagine. He could be lacking empathy, many do. Unfortunately you can't make him feel something he doesn't. It will only add to your stress. Be gentle and caring with yourself and try to find support and comfort from other sources.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your mother. 🤗

@Magenta Thank you. It’s just so hard going through this alone. 😔

@tryingtobeOK Aw I understand. Do you have other relatives or friends? 💜
