loss help: I’m 12 years old i just recently lost my mom due to a heart attack! - Help.com

You can come and post here as much as you want, its a great community… we’re always around…

I know it hurts now…and I know you feel like you cant go on but as time passes you will realize that you can move on. What you should do now is cry…let it out. Mourning is healthy and it helps the body process the emotions. You’ll make it through this. When my brother died, I felt like crap…I didn’t know what to do or how to go on but I did…I thought about all the good times we had and things like that. She may be gone but she is always in your heart and memories.

I’m sorry for your loss…and like the Anon above me said, you can always post here anytime you wish.

I am so sorry for your loss, sweetie. Times will be very tough for a little while, and you will go through a lot of feelings, and stages of trying to cope with your loss.

I’m sorry there isn’t an easy answer for you, I wish there was. I too lost someone very close to me when I was young, and it still hurts sometimes now that I’m an adult. Try to think of it as a celebration of her life. You gave her something to fill hers, and she gave you herself, to fill yours.

I’m not sure on your beliefs about God, but I personally think that you will see her again in time. In the meantime, please feel free to come here and talk to us if it helps. (((Hugs))) I’ll keep you in my thoughts, hun.

Try to be a support to your dad too, he needs lots of hugs and kisses right now, and is hurting just as much as you. The feeling will go away in time, and you will remember to smile again.

Know that you Mom is not dead.She is currently being stored
in heavan until she gets reborn again.
She can here you and you can talk to her.
She sends love to you always.

I’m very sorry for your loss.

I lost my wife in 2007 and here is what I found helpful.

1. Going to a bereavement support group. You will be surrounded by people JUST LIKE YOU who have lost someone. You don’t have to talk if you don’t want to but you can listen to other people who are at different stages of working through their loss. I went for months and it helped me. No one knows what this is like except someone who has experienced it! Being with them will help you immensely.

2. Get the book “On grief and grieving” by Elisabeth Kubler-Ross. It is fantastic. It speaks directly to you about all the feelings you will have and why.

It’s horrible. I am soooo sorry for you. This is probably the worst thing that will ever happen to you in your entire life. The best thing you can do is get closer to your dad. He is experiencing the same thing as you and together you can find a way to make each other feel better. I know nothing I type will help much, but believe me you and your dad need to stick close and help each other as much as possible. Remember he is feeling the same pain and sharing will help.

Remember not the the words, but the hand that wrote them.

Take comfort in that life is short, and eternity far longer.

Do you have a school counselor you can talk to?
I an very sorry this has happned. How recent has this happened?

Your powers of humor fail you once again.

It must be very difficult for you and your dad right now. You may be feeling very sad and alone. It is normal to feel this way, but just know that you are not. There are lots of people that care about you.
You may want to talk to other kids that have been going through the same thing.
There is a support website made by kids your age, that deals with the loss of someone that you love.
If you want you can check it out.

I lost my mum at your age (13), and you never forget. It is hard and your notice people whom were always there disappear, or move on when you dont. Thats normal….and not your fault. Rememebr that - IT’s NOT your Fault!!!
Your dad is doing what only he nows is best and sometimes dads don’t know what to do as no one expects to go through this :) but rememeber HE loves YOU, and you need to tell him how you feel - ( I know this is hard) but you NEED to do it, he needs to hear it to.

As you can see from the response you have received your not alone, in many ways people have lost and ventured on. Your be fine too, I know its hard and so weird the thoughts, also the feeling of loss and being alone and sometime blame, but rememeber your not alone to all this, myself and all of above and below messages are here for you.

Chat any time, Tell dad how you feel, he will not bite :)
