Hi all, The last year has been horrible for me, It all started June 6th 2023 when a good friend died all of a sudden, before I could even process and start grieving, on June 29th 2023 my mom died, she was 67, as I was grieving her death and the death of my friend, I had another friend die in August of 23, then another friend in Sept of 23 , then in Nov of 23 I had to put my cat down. Jan of 24 I had to put my dog down, Feb Of 24 had another friend die , then March of 24 a few days after my birthday I had another friend die. It was back to back...I haven't even processed all the death , I haven't left my house since June. I am now sick with a horrible cold and wondering if it was all the grief, sadness and just running myself down. I am trying to find a way to deal with all this while also taking care of myself. Sending hugs to everyone who is here.

Hello mozziesmom
Welcome to our friendly Community.
My goodness what a horrible time you have had.
I'm so very sorry to read of all your losses mozzie, close friends are difficult enough to cope with but your Mom and pets are very special in your life and it really takes it toll on you and your health. After all, there is only so much you can take, before it affects you physically, you must feel very run down.
When there are so many deaths within a short period of time, we call that complicated grief and you would benefit from chatting with a therapist or bereavement counsellor as we as support from us here.
I hope you have family support too that are helping you.
Take good care of yourself.

Chloe Thank you so much for your kind words, yes I am in therapy and just found a grief support group I'll be going in Sept.
That will be so helpful mozziesmom
I feel sure you will benefit from these.
Take care x
oh my goodness, that is dreadful and hard to comprehend. No wonder you can’t process all that. I’m lost for words but sending you love and understanding and keep us all here in your heart and mind as you are in ours. Take care 🦊x
Thank you so much, it really means a lot. sending you hugs.
that’s a lot to go through. I’m sorry to hear this. 67 is no age these days is it. I’ve no doubt at all that your colds down to all the trauma. After a particularly bad few years & that’s putting it mildly I ended up getting RD. I’m sure this was down to the traumas.
It sounds like you’re seeking help. Well done you. Not easy when your tanks empty. Look after yourself. Make sure your eating healthy exercise & fresh air recommended with as much sleep as you can get x
I am so sorry that you have had so many losses in such a short time. Thoughts and virtual hugs coming.
