Grief
In February of this year I lost my grandfather. I sat up in the hospital that week. I arrived back to the hospital 10 minutes after his passing but my sisters were able to be there with him. In March of this year I lost my boyfriend he had a heart attack at home in bed beside me and he did not make it. This month I held on to my mother as she took her final breath and passed from cancer. My best friend through it all was there for my partner's passing but suddenly disappeared for awhile and she just text me the other day from a different phone number and she sounds very paranoid and schizophrenic and I'm so worried about her. I just feel like losing all these people and now my best friend seems to be suffering with mental illness or something. My heart is aching and I just feel overwhelmed.
@ladybug1982 oh no I am sorry you have so many losses in your life. It must be a challenge to cope with all that.
Hope you get the support you are looking for.
@soulsings Thanks for showing you care.
You have a very caring heart, just wanted to let you know.
@ladybug1982 I am deeply sorry for your loss.
@ladybug1982
I am so sorry to hear of your losses truly as I know how overwhelming it can be. Whilst I do not have many words of comfort, I do know gradually your heart will ache a little less and you'll be able to move forward a little more day by day, step by step. I also lost my Grandfather in February of this year and it's just early days so be kind to yourself, some days will be harder than others but you are working through this and you will be in a better space someday soon. I'm sorry to hear of all of the challenges you've had in such a short space of time. Please remember we are here for you at 7 Cups.

@ladybug1982 I'm sorry to hear all of this grief in such a short time! I get what you mean about feeling overwhelmed. You can't even process one loss before the next begins, and before long you just start thinking the worst. Really hope you get a break soon, Bug.

@ladybug1982 hey I am so glad u shared all this- and I cant imagine having all of these heartbreaking events happen at once. You are always welcome to reach out to your friends on cups, we'll be here for you. It is a tough time in life: what may seem so crippling and insurmountable at the moment. Continue to reach out and know that you can bravely withstand these trials: process these emotions healthily, look at each event independently, reason through each event rather than letting it inundate you and take form as One Giant Mass reinforcing hopelessness, anxiety, and any similar core belief that "everything you love will leave u" or whatever deep fear you are harboring to your heart.
we will be here for you, and so will those loved ones who left you. I know they will wish for you to persevere through these hardest times, and I know that they want not their loss to become a loss of you but to better strengthen us into empathetic, loving, and brave beings.
I love you so much stay strong soldier
omg i cant believe u went though all of this! I am deeply sorry for your losses.
I feel sorry for you hope you doing fine stay strong my dear we here always love and care about you <33
We all hope you are reaching out and getting the support that you need because grief is tough and finding a community that understands this, like we do at 7 Cups can really help. Step by step, moment by moment.
@ladybug1982 I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. As someone who has lost people very close to me i completely understand and am here for you anytime.
