I was born an only child and my mother passed away in 2006 from cancer, my father passed away from cancer in 2009 and to put the icing on the cake
my step-father passed away on father's day 2010. Did I mention that I am an only child how does one deal with that on a daily basis. I am staying in my parents house because of the economy and the housing market sucks, I went to move all the things out of my step-father house and when I arrived someone stole all of the things that I was going to give the salvation army and VA. I can't seem to find anyone who understands me because apparently I am the only person that this has happend to go figure :) I thought I had friends but it seems as if everyone wants to use me. I've never been a mean person or a user so I can't understand why I am going thru this with my friends. I know I won't ever get my parents back but I wished I that God would've waited until I got married and had kids before my life(parents) were taken away from me. I walk around like I am so happy but if people could really see inside they probably would run. I constantly hear how strong I am but I am really weak. I really hope someone can give me some advice.
Hi, there. I am so sorry that you've lost the people who were so important to you, all within a short period of time, it seems. Loss really hurts and if you're feeling like you are having a hard time dealing with it, my suggestion would be to find a therapist to talk to who could help you work through it. You have a lot to feel sad about. Like you said, it's not only the loss of your parents, but the loss of what you had hoped for your future - for them to see you married and a parent; having your own family might have softened the blow a bit. I do think things happen to us for a reason and that sometimes our worst losses can be the source of our biggest growth. But, that doesn't make it feel any less painful.
We're here if you want to write any time, I'm sure there are many here who have gone through some similar things. Don't forget to take care of yourself as best you can.
