Hello, I am feeling so overwhelmed as I am in the midst of our first year anniversary. This is when the horror began. Everyday I can replay it over and over again and nobody can seem to understand me. They don't understand why I would torture myself by thinking that way. But they will not ever know the circumstances of the loss of their child and I pray they never will. It is so hard to be alone, and to struggle with all the emotions of it all.  I am truly so very lost ..read more

Hello everyone This is my first post. I came across this website while searching for support groups near me.  Writing this post after just coming back from visiting my daughter (where she rests). We lost Reanshi in March 2019. Been 4 years. As far as I remember this week has been most difficult in a long time,  well.. since the first year passed.  I am not sure of the reason. This whole month I have been feeling low, numb. Doing my best to be on top of day to day and caring for house, kids. But slacking. There have been days I could not get myself up to make dinner. Feeling guil ..read more

Last night I dreamt that most horrible dream about my son.  Today has been a full day of anxiety, sadness and guilt.  My dream was so awful.  I feel like a terrible mother for the dream I had.  In a nutshell, my son was being mean to me in my dream, and I grabbed him by the face and yelled at him saying " You're dead - why are you being so mean to me?" I also grabbed him by the face saying those words.  I woke up feeling so terrible.  Is this type of dream normal?  Am I losing my mind?  I do feel like I'm losing my mind!   FYI my son's death was une ..read more

How do you breathe? How do you ever feel like you’re ever going to be happy again? I will never be happy again. I will never be able to smile truly again. The world I once knew is shattered. My beautiful son struggled with depression, which led to alcohol and drug abuse, he was given a lethal dose of heroine and fentanyl and the person who gave it to him has never been charged. They stood there and watched him die then ran away. My son is in heaven, and is no longer struggling in this life which gives me some comfort. But what I’m finding now is the isolation and loneliness is overwhelming. No ..read more
