I am so depressed today. I miss my Mom so much. It will be 2 months tomorrow that she has been gone. Some days I feel as if I am at peace with it and other days like today, I feel as if I have hit a brick wall. I just want to go home and crawl back in bed.
I didn't eat half my calories for breakfast this morning. I'm just yucky today. Any words of wisdom? I don't feel very motivated today guys.

I'm really sorry to hear about your mother. It's really hard to pull yourself together on days like this, but you must. You must do something. You must make yourself do something. Get out of the house and do something. Some days when I don't feel my best, and I acknowledge the bad feelings, give myself a certain amount of time to just focus on nothing but those feelings, and then I put it away. Your life can't stop. Don't lose progress.0 -
I won't say it gets easier. It still kills you every time u think about it, but fortunately, you start having longer breaks in between.0

Hang in there!! Next Monday will be my Dad's one year anniversary since his death. Some days I don't want to do anything but cry. He was my best friend!! Call a good friend today and talk. I just try to stay busy.
I wish I had some better words......Know that you are not alone. I too have those days.0 -
I totally understand how you feel. I lost my mom this past may. It has been almost 8 months, but I still just miss her soooooo much. Some times I'll be driving home from work or where ever and just start crying, bawling! I am finally able to talk about her without crying but it still hurts really badly. She was my best freind, we did everything together. My father passed away 9 months before my mom and I miss him too but I REALLY miss my mom. Just remember the good times and the joy and go there when you are feeling down. Remember she wouldn't want you to be sad, she was your mom and ALWAYS will be there with you in your heart and she is now your gardian angel.
Here's a hug for you!!!

Im sorry to hear about your mom. I know how depression can affect your well made plans. My Father has agressive bone cancer he's been fighting for a little over a year now. He started having seizures last nite and is now in the hospital over 900 miles away. What did I do after getting that phone call?... Have a plate of left over spagetti. After that i logged it and jogged on the treadmill for 10 minutes and It helped clear my head a little. When I'm really down I try to get outside and do something that I think is theraputic, like muck a stall or run the mule around or something. It helps get my mind of of things I can't help. You have to take care of you no matter what mentally and physically. I hope you feel better soon.0

Hi-I lost my Mom last night. I got the call at 6AM this morning. I'm in the numb stage. Keep in mind that your Mom, most anyone's Mom, would want you to be the healthiest and happiest possible. Don't ever just stuff your feelings away but instead channel those feelings into something creative. Personally I write and paint. Journaling is a great tool. Sadness is very closely related to anger. If you don't talk about it and express it then the emotion will fester and cause stress to your body which can manifest in physical ways. Talk to someone who knows how to listen. Chat about the fun memories. Journal.
Above all take care of yourself.0 -
