Really feeling this right now…

If not profound love. The grief is never ending, but so is the love

The difficult anniversaries…

Yesterday was what would’ve been my mother’s 90th birthday. It’s weird to remember that in 2020, when she turned 87, there was no reason to imagine that she wouldn’t still be around. She was very healthy and vital. What a difference three years...

In 2013, I found experience project while googling ways to take my life. I decided to write a story on there instead. I saw another post from a woman who wrote about how it sucks that they are always photogenic in pictures and I made a jome about it....

I will never stop loving you

I will never forget the look in your eyes when we knew you were dying and only had a few days left. You said you would never leave me but you did... Even though you didn't want to 💔

Only you know what you've lost

How do you deal with anticipatory grief?

Bereavement Counselling really does help...

(VENT. NOT LOOKING FOR ADVICE) I have been attending bereavement counselling for the past few weeks and I genuinely feel better for doing it after mulling over the idea for 4 months. Yeah I still feel really crap about the bereavement, but the...

Why does grieving always hurt so much?

Grief... loss.. and moving on

"My feet will want to march to where you are sleeping...But I will go on living"

Trying to adapt, small steps…

Changed the phone contact from "Mom & Dad" to "Dad", substituted a song he likes for the ringtone. I still have messages saved so I can hear her voice. Not that I’ll ever forget it in this lifetime. 😞

Grief.....music expresses things words cannot

Sometimes people here are so mean…

You never know what someone is going through and you’re just mean. I don’t get it.

Grief doesn't ever get lighter, we just get used to carrying the weight.

The darkness is like a heavy blanket, That surrounds my shattered soul That has stolen all my happiness , And has been replaced with an immense sadness , That only another grieving mother could know. I struggle with so many emotions That occupy my...

My friend passed away..

Last summer, a good friend of mine, a lady i worked with for many years was diagnosed with a brain tumour. She had an op, and chemo for many months, but they stopped her treatmeant two months ago. We were informed she passed away yesterday. Sadly,...

I Know Pain, Grief And Suffering

I was blamed for my grandmother’s death. She had stage 4 lymphoma and to not scare the family she diminished her feelings and symptoms to present it that although it was there, it wasn’t bothering her much and she wasn’t dying. Fast forward years...
