Missing four people while depressed

This is a lot to spill onto a text box, but I will try to make it short as possible. I lost my grandparents and two people, who were friends of my family and could have possibly been potential step-dads if my mother would have chose to do so, in a window of 11 years starting in 2010. I thought I got all the grieving out I could but lately I find myself crying for all of them because I'm in a time right now that I could use their advice and support. I normally wouldn't bring this up in a group or forum but with my depression the grief can make the feeling worse. I think part of it is I'm not grieving properly. I only wish that I could get their support, but keep relizing that opportunity has passed.


It probably doesn't help to that I concider them the only family I could trust since my family is quite broken apart and is hard to know if their support is genuin or not to be trusted.


How can I take their memories and this want to hear what they have to say about my current situation and mold some healthy grieving out of it?

so far, knock wood, the only person i have yet to regret losing is my youngest son and it has only been 5 years. i feel like i am processing thoroughly, but? ? ? i am beginning to suspect i will never completely get over losing him.

i lean ever so gently into the grief and go where it takes me. i shoot to feel every tear as a tribute to a love worth missing. i have a grief song i sing while i miss him.

small steps, big faith and lots of prayer. let god lead the dance.

You could write them each a letter and write all that you'd like to say to each person and read it to them

I'm sorry that you've lost people that you love

I know that it hurts

Big hug...xo

    Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
