Mentally I'm good. Emotionally I'm not mainly because it's coming on 3 years that mom passed and this is my first year feeling it without the cloud of cymbalta hanging over me so it's kind of pity party time. Other than that I'm ok. It's just a part of life I have to get thru and will.
awe sweet sib i am sorry. now you can go thru the grief for real and then put your mom in your heart to live out the rest of life with you. i have my dad in me. we still chat after 36 years. just because i cannot see him does not mean he is gone. he is all around me always. every word or experiece still exists in me.
when my dad died i decided he moved to another place where they don't have phones or mail and you can't find it. that way he was never gone. i was 21. it worked. tho the first year was horribly scary and lonely. i had alot of self pity about it.
i will meditate for you to feel deeply the presence of your mother.
much love and peace,
blue

I've lost both parents and 2 brothers. I know they are around me always. I try not to think too much about them or I break. It's very hard, I know. We all have our ways of grieving. I don't think we ever stop we just handle it better as time goes by. The time is different for everyone as well. Think of this WW, your Mom was with you when you worked on your cymbalta titrate, I'm sure she was. Stay well.
Low pain all,

Thanks Blue and Cat. Hugs to you both. I know she's always there with me in spirit and will always be. Some days even in a form of presence. I think it's just something I'll work through in time. I really feel if I hadn't been on cymbalta I'd have worked my way through it some time ago.
I think it's time for me to put this thread to bed unless anyone ever has a question or comment. Thanks to everyone.
