Need A New Start

Hi.. My name is Amber, but I’ve been called Ambie or Ambs most of my life. I have felt depressed and have had pretty severe anxiety for most of my life, but was officially diagnosed a few years ago.

Last year was a breaking point for me when my mama was diagnosed with terminal cancer. She died in August 4, 2019 and I haven’t felt the same since.

Why am I telling you this? Because I need a change. I don’t want to feel so empty anymore. Until I finally get my insurance, I have no one. So I thought this could be my new start.

Hey Amber. You have my attention if you need to vent. It’s a start. Hope you feel better.

How would you vent? Just like you did. Say what’s on your mind. I’m new on here also. Only a couple days. Tell your troubles and know there are countless others so your not alone.

Hi Amber

Sorry for the loss of your Mother to cancer. It's very difficult to see a loved one slowly die

I'd like to encourage you to look for grief support

Hospice might be a good place to start, and they helped me, and my family after my husband passed

Sending a big hug 🤗

I'm available if you need someone to talk to

❤️

First babe , I'm so sorry about your mum

This is so sad , and it's hard to lose a mother I understand that . But I want you to know this , your mother would want you to become the best version of yourself. Remember what you talked about when she was alive, how you'd make her proud ( she wants nothing less ) She would want you to move on with life , try and establish yourself

I know you feel alone and all, but you've got friends who love you so much

I don't know you , but I'm also here for you

Its important to appreciate those around you move on with your life and make mama proud from heaven
