      From LaraB November 6

      I'm sorry you feel this way too. It can be so discouraging and it's hard to find someone who understands. Maybe we could talk sometimes. I'm very sorry for your loss.

      Type: Loss of a Parent

      I recently experience the loss of my mother. She was 69 and battled cancer for three years. I have been having trouble dealing with the loss not everyday but most of them. I thought this may help.

      Treatments

      Crying Somewhat Helpful
      I go through bouts of uncontrollable crying. But I still feel horrible.
      Keeping Busy Not Working
      going to work. I can't focus and make many mistakes. going to school, cant focus and make many mistakes.
      Pets Somewhat Helpful
      Love my dogs but they don't talk.
      Prayer Too Soon to Tell
      I started going to church every weekend. Very emotional
      Reading Somewhat Helpful
      I read many grieving books but most of them tell me what I all ready know.
      Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
      This has helped the most but people are not always available to the degree that I may need. They have lives too. If they aren't available the feelings worsen.
      Support Groups Too Soon to Tell
      Online just started. Don't know if itwill work
      Talking Working / Worked
      this also helps but like with friends it only works when they are there. if they aren't there it is worse.
      Time Too Soon to Tell
      Just been a month.
