      My mum passed away (detail removed by moderator). I’m going over there this morning. My first thought was I don’t have anyone to tell, no one I’m close to any more. Hope it’s ok to put it on here. I do feel like I have friends here who understand, albeit virtual.

      Wish I was feeling stronger, (detail removed by moderator)not working, trying to help daughter

      Hugs anyway

      Oh Eve1 I am so sorry for you. Please allow yourself time to grieve – in what ever way helps you. In time you will come to live with the kids of your mum but the pain remains. Make sure you do all you can to look after yourself at this difficult time. Xxxx

      Thank you all. I feel your hugs and support. Early this year I was in a very low place and came back on here after not being on for s while. It’s helped so much. It’s helped me extract myself from another abusive relationship and so much more.

      Huge thankyous

      Thank you. Bad day yesterday, spent hours with my Dad. I did get to have a little in put into Mum’s funeral, but as the end of it and today I feel so bad. It is best for me to spend so much time around him. It makes me feel worthless. Still haven’t rung Cruse but I will. Will they understand about abuse?

      Thank you again
      Xx

    • #30192

      That’s ok you don’t need to say thank you that’s what we are all here for. Ring cruse they will totally understand pick up the phone to the helpline we are all here for you. You need a lot of self care to get through this but I am sure you will. They will understand about bereavement and the helpline will know all about abuse. The Samaritans are also great to speak to generally. Good luck keep posting on here too xxxx

      It’s so hard. I’ve just spoken to him on the phone and he cried. I think people expect me to stay there with him (I don’t live in the same town) at this time, and at a push I could, if I he didn’t trigger me so much. There are reasons i can’t get there tomorrow really, apart from needing rest myself, but I feel guilty not being there. Horrible feeling.

      Hi Eve,
      I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. Hold on to yourself and remember that other people don’t know all the story of your relationship with your parents. Do what you feel is right for you. Can you talk to him on he phone rather than going to visit? I find it much easier to talk to my mum on the phone. The physical distance makes me feel safe and we can actually have quite a good relationship that way.
      Xx M
