Advice for a 34 year old orphan
I lost my mom this past December and my dad when I was 26, both to cancer. Last year, I also lost my cousin, uncle, and grandmother unexpectedly. I have a brother who has always been very distant and has now stopped speaking to me. And this past week I've also had two close friends end their friendships with me quite brutally rather than resolve a relatively minor conflict.
Honestly, its so much. Even just writing that whole list of losses is crazy. I never thought I'd be so alone so early in my life. My mom and I had a complicated relationship, which I think just makes grieving more difficult. I feel so lost and sad and I'm not sure where to go from here. I'm wondering if anyone else who has lost their parents young or been through similar struggles has any advice they can pass on. What did your life look like after? Is there anything to look forward to? Do things get easier?
