3 months today since she has passed
 

My daughter is gone and God I miss her. Sober but so tired of feeling so bad. I do not even remember what feeling good is like.

Looking for a fix that doesn't exist

I'm sorry, MIRecovery. I wish there was something I could say.

Hugs and positive thoughts to you, MIRecovery.

I'm so sorry MiRecovery. :hug:

(((((MIRecovery))))) I'm so sorry. I can't even imagine. Thinking of you.:grouphug:

Im so sorry MI

I'm sorry too MIR. Have you thought of seeing someone professionally about your grief?

D

very sorry for your loss MIR, wish you well as you continue through your grieving process

Sorry for what you are going through.

My thoughts are with you.

Big hugs to you.

(((((MIRecovery)))))

:hug: Having just lost my mother, I understand your feelings. There's a feeling of emptiness. A big hole in your heart. :(

I see a counselor and it helps. Can you get some counseling to help you thru this? :hug:

My condolences.

So sorry, MI. (((())))) Grief counselling may help you.

I too have known loss and for me the grief has lessened with time and been replaced with heart felt memories and love. Take care of yourself.

Hugging you, MIR. Hugging you more, dear.

Dear MIRecovery
You are sober and helping many others to achieve/maintain their sobriety.
I am sure your daughter is in a safe place now, with God. I'll bet she would want you to continue as you are, helping others.

" And so beside the tideless sea, I await the muffled oar.
No harm can come from Him to me, on ocean or on shore.

I know not where his islands lift their fronded palms in air.
I only know I cannot drift beyond His love and care."

Thank you all for the kind words.

Sometimes the grief just washes over you and you feel like you are drowning but it passes and life goes on

Sorry, MI. I hope in time the good memories will give you comfort.

I'm very sorry.

((MIR))

I have no words, just know I am here, reading this, supporting you.

You are in my thoughts too... I send you a huge hug. You are being strong and I am proud of you.

I'm so sorry.

I have thought about grief counseling but I don't think the way I'm grieving needs to be fixed.

Grief doesn't consume me and I am still able to enjoy things. My sobriety is strong. I don't believe that there is anything that can be done.

My 28 yr old daughter died and I'm heart broken. I'd say that is pretty normal. Doesn't make it suck any less but normal

I'm so sorry, MIR... I'm going through my own current version of this, just the other way around, with my elderly father, who is alive and often in good spirits, but is declining fast. It is so hard and sometimes my feelings are so chaotic I get quite lost at times. But I am here with him, trying to make the best out of what we have left...
I can't imagine doing this relative to my child. My heart goes out to you.

Based on your posts, your feelings and grieving does seem very healthy and normal and I admire your strength. On the counseling, perhaps your process does not need to be fixed or changed, but maybe just talking about it in detail with someone might help? I certainly can't wait to get to my therapist and unload some of this with him... I think I'm dealing relatively well, but maybe there are methods and thought processes I am not aware of and that would help.

You are in my thoughts.

Very sorry for your loss, SR is here for you!! :grouphug:

That's entirely your call of course :)

I didn't mean to imply that you're not reacting in a normal appropriate way MIR - tragedy is tragedy.

D

Sorry MIR for your loss and the grief you are feeling. I can't even imagine... Just wanted you to know you are not alone.

Thoughts and prayers to you

Sorry MIR.

I'm very sorry for your loss and pain. Sending prayers your way.
