My heart just breaks for you. *HUG* I still have my mom, but my dad passed away in June of 1989 and I still cry now and then while thinking of him or seeing pictures or something he has written on...or his voice on tape...so many things make me think of him.
Holidays, birthdays, special occasions seem to be the hardest when coping with a loss. You remember happy times when they were still here and feel such a void.
It's a possibility that antidepressants could help or at least take the edge off your sadness. They say it takes at least a year to grieve because you have to get through all those special days that you normally shared with the one you've lost, so I think your feelings are normal, but it couldn't hurt to seek help. I'm not saying that after a year, you suddenly stop grieving, but it gets a little easier. I send hugs and if you ever need to talk, just pm me. Maddie sends kisses. |
