I can't get over my mom's death.

[Pulp501]

It has been over six months since she died, and it still feels like it just happened. Everyone said it would get better with time. But it hasn't. It's like a never ending nightmare. When she died I feel like I died with her but I'm still stuck here. I don't cry all the time but I do a lot, I just feel empty.

Things like this are not expected to be accepted easily. Six months can be a long time, but I'm not surprised you are still depressed. Things take time, especially if it has to do with someone close. It's ok to grieve. You need to. Some people take shorter and some take longer to.....accept it. I don't know how close you were to your mother, but I hope you get through this. I can't help, except by posting this reply. I hope all goes well for you. And to your mother -
Rest In Peace, Ma'am.

I know exactly what you're going through. I lost my father on June 29th, and to this day, it still feels excruciating. The only thing that keeps me going, though, is the fact that I know my dad would want me to move on with my life, and not just mope around 24/7.
I also cherish all the memories, and feel fortunate that he was in my life as long as he was to have a positive influence on me. I wouldn't be the person I am now without him. Anytime I needed advice, or someone to talk to, he was there. So I will always appreciate that, and feel fortunate he was there for my as long as he was.

What I'm trying to say is just remember the good times you and your mother had, and feel fortunate for all the good she did for you when she was alive.

I know this is a very tough thing to go through, so if you ever need to talk, you're welcome to PM at anytime. Hang in there buddy. :hug:

I felt like that for years after someone close to me died, it takes a long,long time to get over something like this, just take your time and eventually the pain will stop, and leave nothing but memmorys, just the happy ones, with time even the bad memmorys will feel like good ones. I speak from experiance.

I'm so sorry for your loss. :(

Death and grieving take time, don't worry about it. There are different stages of grieving that some people take longer and shorter to stay on. Keep her memory and spirit alive. Think about all the happy times and I don't know what religion you practice but if you believe in afterlife and spirits, she may still be watching over you. Just not in physical shape, but she's there and remember that. It's going to be fine. Again, sorry about your loss.

I understand what you mean. My mum died 3 months ago and it still upsets me whenever I remember her.

Grief does that. The only thing you can do is let it happen and let time pass. If it really hurts you, talking to someone about how you feel, about your mum, about everything can help. I'm not sure how I pulled through, but if I did, I'm sure you can too. It's not something you can forget, but it is something you can learn to live with.

I'm sorry for your loss man. She is somewhere protecting you.

You can get over most anything, it's just a matter of will.

I am so sorry. there really never is a time table for getting over the lost of a loved one, esp someone so close to you as your mom. there will be times throughout your life when you are going to miss her. I know part of you probably wants to be over the grieving process, but it is a process and should not be rushed. my best wishes are for you

It is ok to see a grief counselor. sometimes churches and different organizations even have free grief share you can go to, for people who are trying to deal with their grief. it is always ok to get more help

Time doesn't heal everything. People seem to think everything fades away with time but it's not true and in certain cases it makes it even worse. You have to find the will to carry on, time alone won't do that for you.

[Caver]

aw, I really sympathies you. getting over it will take a while, and time will go quick without her D: changes won't happen straight away unfortunately. but i'm here if you need a chat :)

Hope your feeling better today,
5 years later after loosing my mum it is still as bad it doesn't get easier as much as people try and make it easier. But makes it worse because you have false hope. Loosing someone is awful and being young is heartbreaking
Hope you find some way to cope

Words can only do so much, but I'm so sorry to hear about your mom Brennon. The grieving process takes time, but I would do my best to remember the wonderful times you had to together and celebrate her life. She would want you to be happy and live your life to the fullest. My sincere condolences.
