Avatar f tn I'm living it right now and to be honest, I am aware of 5 to 7 steps or stages of the grief process, but they don't matter, because you survive one day at a time ....baby steps, and not time frame, since everyone heals at their own pace. It's been 2 years for me and I do feel better, but I am not yet completely healed...it takes a long time.
Avatar m tn What you are experiencing is extremely common, and normal. When we are dealing with the loss of a loved one, it brings our own mortality into sharper focus. The death of someone we love is unquestionably, in my opinion, THE most stressful life event we must all endure. And that stress can manifest itself in countless ways, anxiety being very close to the top of the list.

Avatar f tn Just like falling in love takes time so does dealing with a passing of a loved one.Just opposite ways of feeling.Love and loss,two parts of life that both hurt.For loving anyone or anything,such as a pet can lead to pain.All feelings lead to pain and despair,eventually.So do we stop feeling,stop loving,stop caring,no we just learn to adjust to our new lives without that loved one that pet,that friend.whom ever.Death ends a life,not a relationship.
Avatar f tn At first it seems like the light at end of the tunnel, is so far and out of reach, but with the right support the tunnel is not so scary. This is what I tell myself everyday. I say, "Rachel, live today like Cooper would want you to!" "Live this day to make all his Angel Buddies proud!!" Your daughter does not want you to be sad, she wants you to LIVE. Keep her alive by sharing her life with others, the more you tell the more will LOVE!!!!!
Avatar f tn jem...first of all...if I could reach thru the computer screen and give you the biggest bear hug, I would. I can feel the pain in your post. Sweetie, you are dealing with SOOO much right now, it is understandable that you are going thru these feelings. FIRST of all, you are FAR from alone. You are suffering from panic attacks, which are not at all uncommon after a person goes thru a loss like you did, especially so unexpectedly. You are dealing with numerous issues.
Avatar f tn Has anyone had the circumstance of having a family member pass away while your pregnant? My father passed in October 2014 and one of my fav cousins has been in the hospital for 5 days brain dead. I try to stay calm but its very difficult. My due date is 3/8/15.
412194 tn?1233621532 My husband was in a lot of pain over and I am coping with that, much better than with the death of my daughter. I understand what your friend is feeling Neta, I think it is a natural reaction to be angry alot especially when you lose too back to backI went through the anger I was mad at God particularly because he wouldnt tell me why he took them both.
Avatar f tn re dealing with an old dog now, and I hope she goes the way Annabelle does, fast and in the arms of someone who loves her. She even had a good time going for a walk right before it, I don't think she could have been any happier at that moment. Your suffering now, but I hope you find some peace knowing Annabelle was happy till the end and well loved for 10 plus years.
1199135 tn?1265238751 Hello! I am a mother of a 4 soon to be 5 year old little boy. I am haviing lots of trouble with him. A lot of people are telling me that he is at the testing age but I just do not believe that. He has always been a good boy but for the past few months he has been out of control. He will not listen to a word I say. I usually put him to bed about 8:30 and it is around midnight before I can get him to sleep. I have to fight with him for hours. This happens every night.
Avatar f tn I also am responsible for sending cards to people in my church that are sick, depressed, stressed or mourning the loss of a loved one. Anything shared with me personally might be used on a card if I think it might be appropriate or helpful. Thank you for your input.
Avatar f tn I have a fear of death. Mostly the death of a loved one. I worry so much that if I lost one of my family members I don't know what would happen to me, I think I would go crazy, it would ruin my life, I feel like crying when I think about it, I shouldn't worry but I do, which makes it worse because they are going to all die one day, this scares me because they are so important to me.
Avatar m tn Hi everyone. I am a loved one of someone who binge smokes crack. He was a year clean until yesterday and never picked me up from work, texting me he was on his way, and then never showed, ignored my calls to finally shutting the phone off and now took the day off of work when he finally came home from this at 3am. We have been working so hard to rebuild out lives from the last time and now I feel like here we go again.
1880594 tn?1321160655 Death is something we all are generally concerned for in one way or another, either it be our own death or of a loved ones. However my anxiety on the subject has got me rather frustrated as my mind also takes part in imagining what that "bump" in the night could have been. I usually suspect it to be my roommate falling over (and dying) or one of my cats being crushed by some unknown object.
192055 tn?1263555537 t went through the 5 stages of death. No matter what everyone who loses someone has to go through these stages..So my advice to you is to get out some pictures and just cry. You need to cry..it really helps. but i am no expert..
Avatar f tn Her dementia is now stage 5, well into the moderate stages. In my opinion the dementia is what she will eventually die from not the cancer or the COPD. Her Drs gave her 6 months to live 2 1/2 years ago. Her only continued symptoms are a cough and getting winded on exertion. She won't do oxygen or her nebulizer. Like I said, very slow decline. She is happy and taken care of living each day as it comes in her dementia world.
Avatar f tn I think that when you lose someone that you loved with all your heart there is a part of you that goes with them and never returns. You learn to go forward as a different you. To have that be compounded by the loss being a child is simpy unfathomable to me. So very very sorry!
