Hello all!

Hi guys, my name is Beth and I'm 21. I lost my mum 3 years ago when I was 18 and life hasn't been the same since. The grieving process was brought to a halt when I found out my dad had started a new relationship with my mums best friend on the same day she died. This completley changed my personality and I moved down to Southampton with my girlfriend who fortunately has helped me to get my head back on track. I'm now working full time and feeling more secure but I still struggle on a daily basis to come to terms with what has happened especially with the situation with my dad. I just need someone who knows what I'm going through to talk to me and offer me some guidance as I'm not sure where things are going anymore with my mental and physical health

Hi Beth,  I'm very sorry for your loss,  I lost my mum at 15,  it's so hard isn't it,  I'm sorry I'm not in a place to offer you lots of good advice at the moment ( I'm going through a more recent loss of my grandad which has left me in bits)  but I'm sending you hugs and hope you find lots of help here,  I'm finding it comforting just knowing there's people who understand xxxx
