Feeling totally silly...

Have spent the last week with my parents and they are leaving to go home tomorrow! I've been getting knots in my stomach feeling a bit sick and feeling crap.

My parents love in Southern Ireland and I in Cornwall and every time my mum leaves I feel completely broken and it kills me. I'm 26 married with two children! I feel so silly for admitting how much it hurts for my mum to leave, does anyone else get like this? Does it ever go away?

Hi

Please don't feel silly

I no you are 26 , married with children but you never stop wanting & missing your Mum & it shows what a good strong loving bond you have with her :-)

You have enjoyed that feeling of having her about & been in her company , you will feel this way now she has to leave again its natural

I lost my Mum over 10 years ago & I am old enough to be your Mum , but I still cry & ache because I miss my Mum so much

Sounds like you have had a nice time & hopefully you have another visit to look forward to soon , try & focus on that :-)

Love

Thank you why why,

I love her so much it honestly hurts so much to see her leave.. I'm pleased in a way it's natural to be upset in seeing her leave. I feel such euphoria when she's with me, we laugh so much and were always on the same team!! just I get anxious about her leaving then I get upset, then I get anxious again after she's gone...

Your so helpful with your kind words, ill book mum in my diary for a return visit ASAP before she flies tomorrow ☺️

Just had my daughter messaging me , she is 33 , life is not going as well as it should & who is she coming to her Mum & needing to be reassured & she doesn't have anxiety , its when we have these good bonds , you are lucky what you have with your Mum , one day your kids will have these feelings towards you to & you will be able to tell them its natural you had them to :-)

Hope you can book your next visit soon :-)

Hi Missfully,

Don't beat yourself up, it is natural to feel this way, so glad you have that bond with mum and daughter.

Aww I feel like this with my grandson he must very from Manchester to torquay last February. We're so close he's my 1st born grandson. I was so ill nearly had a breakdown. He's down this week going home tomorrow. But I'm trying not to panic I just ask him not to see me before he goes so I can pretend he's still here :) works for me. Last time he went home. I managed not to cry. It's awful so I know where you're coming from x
