6-9 Months After Loss-Grief Timeline

[@rontancrede8570]

I have just discovered this group. I am on month 10, grieving my wife, and it has been tough. My daughter and I participate in a six week grieving group. Next week we start cycle 5. It has been extremely helpdull and rewarding. Next month I'll be starting one on one therapy. Thank you for what you do. I look forward into taking a closer look at your presentations.

My entire world and even my "identity " changed on Nov 8 when my 29 year old son went into cardiac arrest and died. There IS no "getting better". The months tick by and look a little different than when it first happened but I would not say that it's "getting better". I would describe it as my new existence.

When my mom died I went into grief therapy as soon as it happened it has helped me immensely it’s been three months I still have that “visitor” grief some but. I’m t doesn’t stay as long as it did before I let it come when it does but I realize it’s just a temporary visitor

I said this on the other 3-6 month video but my dad just passed and I was in that progress of healing abd grieving for him and then my mom passed. In 6months, both of them were gone. I’m dealing with the finality of it. I was thinking I need to call my mom and check in. Meanwhile, I’m lying in her bed. Sometimes it’s so confusing. It’s all a blurry shock sometimes.

I wish you can help me ??! I’m 1 & half years just since mum left. I feel like it’s 2 wks still. I think the Narcissist I met in her in the last 1 of life while living with her.. did the most damage on me being able to recover better. Where as before hand my sister was the one who coped it all from her. That shift in who she wanted to blame was the one who loved her the most unconditionally.. and that was me. When I couldn’t cope anymore I was threatened by others under that “ family “ umbrella. I had no job or money as I was her main live in carer. I begged for help. But she would change the story when help came. So help wasn’t really there. If it was it meant she had that person and me. Instead of it being time for me to rest and quietly grieve in the shed where I had to live if I was to stay alive and keep my dog. So my grief is so complicated and I’ve had 7 days of counciling only. Today I realised I can’t look after myself atm.. coz my health fell to the ground. With no one to ask for help around .. My life was so different before this .. I am so alone in my loneliness. If I make it out alive I will be happy .for that would mean someone heard me and came to help me along , help to rebuild the soul that’s so beautiful inside of my confusion. Confidence is zip.. tonight today I have cried for help till I fell asleep .. I wish for an angel tonight to hear me.. or Mum to hear me . We were once such good friends . Thru thick and thin we had each other’s back.. to have that taken away and changed was so shocking . I don’t have anything to do with any family.. coz they only want her money.. etc.. they even tried changing the will 2 days before she died.. 😭 That makes me want to 🤮. Sorry but it’s disgusting & shocking how it all ended . I’m 50 but feel like I’m 10 ! Hurting like it . I’m in Australia not sure if ur able to help. I wish so. No internet connection in this small town I moved to atm..

I'm 4 months after my mother passed. I was her carer for 4 years. What annoys me,is that the death of a parent, especially if they were elderly, is viewed as a lesser form of grief...

[@Graceforlivingafterloss]

Grief is grief. It is always relative to the nature of your relationship and the place they held in your life. I'm so sorry for your loss and hope that you find courage, strength and support for your recovery journey.

I don't love life anymore.

[@tracynewton3083]

I don't know you but I think i need help, I hope you hang in there. Talk to God if your lonely, you can trust him. 🙏🏻 ❤

[@tracynewton3083]

Thank you 🙏🏻. I survived child sex abuse at 4yrs old. I survived violent times and verbal abuse at home and school. I survived domestic violence. My dad died 2yr ago (the perp) verbal attacks about me still in his old age. Went no contact with family I was a scapegoat child at the same time my dad died. If i grief councelling I think I'd need to do it in a cave, the flood gates isn't a good enough description. I can't grieve it's too much emotionally. What does one do in this case except pray hard. 🙏🏻 Please and thank you.

[@Graceforlivingafterloss]

I’m so sorry. I feel you and I’ve been there. There are still days where I don’t love life, but I’ve learned that feelings come and go and as long as I consistently take the right steps, my feelings catch up. Hang in there! I am rooting for you!
