Breaks down in tears on March 7th #MissYouMom

March 7th, this day I woke up and thought the day would be like any other day(#alone , #depressed but still alive),but oh my, I was so wrong! Usually when my mother's or father's death anniversary has suddenly come, I usually just take it as a normal day, thinking about them a little extra than usually, missing them, sometimes sharing a photo on Facebook and write 'the years and I miss you', BUT later this day I got a weird feeling, I felt different, I felt worse (But I felt even more worse after what happened next). This day was the anniversary of my mother's death, 19 years since she passed away on this day, 19 years! The first thing I said to myself after I thought about how many years had gone by was 'Holy Sh**'! I felt I wanted to share the death anniversary in a Facebook group(first time I shared something this big), and because I had seen other members do the same, however, my post got deleted by an administrator of the group, I felt all kinds of emotions, I wrote a new post and told them how I felt about it and I left the group in anger without thinking and I suddenly broke down in tears and couldn't stop crying! Some members reached out to me on messenger and asked me to not leave the group, one of them wrote they had experienced the same thing but asked me to stay in the group and not let this ruin anything for me, but by then I had already left the group. I do appreciate all the support they gave me, I really do! I chose to take some days trying to calm down a bit. I have cried every day since, but luckily I managed to get a few hours without crying. Non of this helped at all, since I started talking with my psychology about every bad and hurtful experiences throughout my life, I've been more #Vulnerable , so now I'm trying to give myself a break, trying to breathe and do other things to distract myself.

A New Year.

I looked out the window at the bright sun reflecting on the snow today. Its a new year, but I don’t feel like celebrating. Life has continued to go on around me, and still I feel like time is standing still. That when I call, you’ll answer. I’ll ask what are you doing, and you’ll say “Just resting here watching TV.” Instead I went to your grave the other day. I stood there in the wind, tidying up the flowers, putting in the pretty purple light, and waited. Waited to wake up from a bad dream, but unfortunately I am awake. We all are awake. I made breakfast and suddenly I thought about the “egg with a hole in it” you used to make. I absolutely loved everything you made for me. The one recipe I don’t have though is the “How do I live without my mom” recipe. You got a visit from your mom to let you know she was going to take care of you. How I wish I could get a visit like that from you. To know for sure that you are in a better place, that you got the biggest hug from your dad when you got there, and that you will watch over us, making sure we live the rest of our lives without regrets. It’s a new year, and another year I will have to figure out a new normal for myself, for dad, for everyone who loved you. I miss you mama. #Grief #motherlessdaughters #MissYouMom

#52SmallThings Letter

I wrote a sort-of letter to myself. It started off as a journal entry, but ended up being a letter to me. I didn’t know I had to get all of that off of my chest. I guess I missed my mom very dearly today. I miss her every day, but I guess today was different. It also happens to be the seventh of the month. I just thought of that. She died on a day that was the seventh of another month five years ago. #MissYouMom I’m thankful for all the years we had together.
